About the Event

The Deep Tech Advantage: Why the Next Breakthroughs May Be Built Outside Silicon Valley.


Part of Deep Tech Week, the event features a panel of DMV-based trailblazers (to be announced) exploring what it means to build and lead in deep tech from one of the most dynamic innovation ecosystems in the country. Panelists will share why they chose to operate in the DMV, what unique advantages the region offers, and how being women in this space shapes their perspective, their approach, and their success. The conversation will also cover what it takes to innovate, the trends defining deep tech today, navigating funding, and starting a business from the ground up.


Moderated by Rosemarie Savino, Co-founder and COO of Vannadium. Breakfast included.
