Epicenter Comprehensive Security Campfire: Navigating Dual-Use Tech
The line between "civilian innovation" and "national security" is blurring faster than ever. If you're building technology that could protect both a digital network and a physical border, you’re in the right place.
Join us for the Epicenter Comprehensive Security Campfire, an intimate, high-impact session designed for founders, engineers, and strategists navigating the complex world of dual-use technology. We’re stripping away the jargon to focus on how to build, scale, and sell in the defense sector without losing your commercial edge.
We aren't here for high-level theory. We’re here to discuss the mechanics of the defense industry and how it can be utilized by bold founders.
The "Unsolved Problems" Map: We’ll dive into where the current gaps in defense are—identifying the technical hurdles that traditional contractors haven't cleared yet.
The Dual-Use Advantage: Why building for both commercial and defense markets isn't just a pivot—it’s a superior business model for resilience and scale.
Cracking the Code on Sales: Learn how to take those daunting first steps toward defense contracts, from navigating procurement to finding your internal champion.
The Strategic Roadmap: What does a 5-year plan look like when your client is a government entity? We’ll outline the milestones you need to hit.
This isn't a lecture. It’s a collaborative environment meant for high-bandwidth knowledge exchange. Expect raw insights, peer-to-peer networking, and the kind of "off-the-record" wisdom you won't find in a white paper.
This event is co-organised with Finnish Business Angels Network and will be hosted in Aleksandra, located in Mikonkatu 7.
