OUR EVENT
Be in the room where Army leadership signals what it needs next, and acquisition leaders outline the procurement strategy to accelerate the fielding of disruptive technology to the field.
Real conversations about real demand, and the rare opportunity to align capital and innovation to fund capabilities the Army actually needs.
This full-day event gives attendees direct insight into validated demand to create alignment between capability and capital, moving emerging technology from concept to contract and into the field faster.
This fall, the Army is putting out the demand signal for future capabilities, and we are bringing decision makers together to fund, build, and field it.
Answering the Army’s Demand Signal:
Fund it. Build it. Field it.
On Thursday, September 10, 2026, the Army will directly address its modernization priorities and capabilities. Disrupting procurement strategy with buyers and backers, and defense tech disruptors through candid conversation.
Bridging concept to contract, this event signals warfighter needs and mission-critical capabilities with the emerging technologies that drive operational success.
Capacity is limited, so interested attendees are encouraged to apply as soon as possible. Submitting a registration does not guarantee acceptance or confirm attendance. Accepted attendees will receive a confirmation email.
DEMAND SIGNAL BREAKDOWN
Getting Supplies Through, No Matter What: How do we deliver critical resources to our forces quickly and reliably, even when an adversary is actively trying to stop us and we are operating thousands of miles from home?
Precision from a Distance: We need to be able to strike targets accurately from hundreds or thousands of miles away, using everything from missiles to drones, and ensure the strike is successful despite any enemy interference.
Smarter, Faster, Safer Operations with Robotics: How can we use autonomous systems—both in the air and on the ground—to more flexibly move troops, transport supplies, and enhance the safety and effectiveness of our soldiers?
Decisions with Confidence, Even in Chaos: We need to combine data from countless sensors into a single, trustworthy picture of the battlefield to make faster, better decisions. This system must work when GPS is unavailable and resist enemy attempts to deceive or disrupt it.
