27 August 2024
Introducing the six trailblazing startups selected to participate in the first-ever Launch at Resilience Conference pitch showcase. These companies are pioneering novel solutions to address pressing challenges in the defense and security sectors. Their solutions span a range of cutting-edge technologies, from drone protection and intelligent video collection to resilient edge data processing, GPS-free navigation, and advanced smartphone privacy tools.
Some of these startups are exiting stealth, revealing their product at Resilience Conference for the first time. Others will showcase significant updates to their existing solutions. The companies are from the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom, and each raised seed capital, built an MVP, and are looking for partners and investors.
The mission is clear: Resilience Conference will bridge the gap between startups, investors, and government. Launch at Resilience Conference will help strengthen these connections and advance the future of defense and security innovation.
Pitch Showcase Format
Each startup will have six minutes to pitch and demo their product on the main stage of Resilience Conference.
Additionally, the companies will be featured during lunch on 27 September, where representatives will be available to engage with attendees, ask questions, and explore potential partnerships and investments.
Register today to meet these startups in London this September!
