IAI CATALYST Accelerator Cohort 1 Demo Day & Cocktail Reception

​​​In January 2024, IAI North America opened its first innovation center in the U.S., and launched the IAI CATALYST early-stage accelerator program, powered by Starburst Aerospace.

​​​Join us for the first Demo Day of the program to celebrate the achievements of the inaugural IAI CATALYST cohort, featuring keynote speaker: John Whitley – Former Acting Secretary of the Army.

​​​The founders from Cohort 1 – AeroFuse, BosonQ Psi, FibrX, and VYZai – will showcase their innovative solutions and share their progress after completing the 20-week long program.

​​​Demo Day will be followed by a happy hour and networking reception, with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres provided.

​​​Please note that this is an invite-only event with limited space, so attendance will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis.

We look forward to seeing you there!
