Missions + Markets #02: Innovation Needs from the Frontlines

​Missions + Markets | National Landing is an event series bringing together leaders in defense and dual-use tech, including entrepreneurs, industry, academia, government innovation, and others passionate about the space.

​Hosted by Arlington Economic Development, these events are held in the National Landing neighborhood, where a concentration of defense and dual-use assets and companies are making it a national innovation leader. The events foster collaboration, innovation, and knowledge sharing to accelerate the development of groundbreaking technologies in the D.C. region that strengthen America’s defense capabilities. 

​Join us for the second edition of Missions + Markets as Arlington partners with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) to highlight the innovation needs of the warfighter. You'll hear reverse pitches from some of the most successful innovation arms across the DoD and walk away with a stronger understanding of how to get your product on the frontlines.
