The panel will explore how cross-sector synergies, terrestrial and space, civil and military can de-risk technologies, expand addressable markets, and increase investor readiness. We’ll examine how dual-use applications and early alignment with diverse end-users drive traction and improve capital efficiency.

Panelists will share strategies for structuring deals that connect public and private funding and highlight how convergence in technology and finance creates stronger follow-on investment opportunities.
