Overview

The Defense Innovation Unit and National Security Innovation Network invite you to attend the NSIN Foundry Showcase pitch event. Meet the cohort of entrepreneurs and learn about their commercialization strategies for federally-created technologies.

Teams of selected applicants (entrepreneurs) collaborate with DoD scientists and technologists to assess the market viability and commercialization potential of these innovations. With extensive training in Lean Startup principles, entrepreneurs are given the opportunity to form new ventures around cutting-edge technologies. At the same time, DoD researchers gain valuable insights into the market potential and development pathways for their technologies.
