About Event

A private breakfast event hosted by SVDG and DLA Piper.

The space sector stands at a turning point. What was once the domain of governments and legacy aerospace is now defined by rapid commercial proliferation, matched by shifting national security imperatives. As orbits grow more crowded and competition intensifies, collaboration—across industry, government, and investment—has never been more essential.

Join DLA Piper and the Silicon Valley Defense Group for a morning of conversation and connection exploring how new models of partnership and capital formation can unlock the next era of space innovation and defense capability.
