This will be a series of lunch-and-learn style lectures on topics of interest to startups who are looking to pursue DoD business opportunities.
In the first year since the opening of the Center for Defense Innovation at Capital Factory, our companies have been awarded more than $50 million in non-dilutive funding to develop, test, and deliver products. If you’re interested in how did they do it, and how can you do it as well, we hope to see you at Defense Academy!
Defense Academy will take place on three consecutive days from 11:00am to 2:00pm CT.
