SUMMARY:ATL Defense Tech
DESCRIPTION:Real World Test and Evaluation\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nThe Atlanta Defense Network brings together founders\, investors\, academics\, and policy makers working at the intersection of innovation and national security. \n\n\n\nJoin us for our next quarterly event hosted at the Atlanta History Center. \n\n\n\nAtlanta is emerging as a critical hub for defense innovation—home to a growing ecosystem of founders building technologies that support U.S. and allied security. In this fast-paced panel\, hear from four startup leaders navigating the unique challenges of building for national security from outside traditional coastal tech centers. \n\n\n\nWe’ll explore how these founders broke into the defense ecosystem\, the trade-offs of building dual-use technology\, and what Atlanta’s innovation community needs to lead in the next era of defense. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhether you’re building\, investing\, or just curious about how defense tech is evolving\, this is the room to be in. Don’t miss your chance to be part of the conversation—and the solution. \n\n\n\nQuarterly | Atlanta History Center | Open to all committed to service and innovation.
