LA Defense Tech Founders + Funders x Topgolf

​Join us for a candid conversation unpacking the less obvious but increasingly critical frontiers of defense innovation—from AI and logistics to infrastructure and dual-use software.

​We’ll hear from leaders at Lux Capital and Fulcrum Venture Group, alongside two startup founders who are building the backbone of next-gen national security. These are the technologies shaping how the U.S. prevents conflict, responds to threats, and sustains its strategic edge—without launching a single missile.

​After the panel, stick around for drinks, bites, and a few friendly rounds at Topgolf. It’s a chance to connect with other operators, investors, and thinkers shaping the future of national resilience.
