Technology & National Security Conference

@redglassvc @Nominal_io @CameronLMcCord Thank you!!!!

@Nominal_io @CameronLMcCord @TechNatSec I remember attending and speaking at that conference. And it was truly a first. Kudos to all involved!

Five years ago, @CameronLMcCord helped launch the first @TechNatSec conference as a student at HBS. This weekend, he was back on stage talking about how software and AI are changing hardware T&E. Where physics gets a vote.

Thrilled to be able to feature @spacefluxHQ at our conference! Here’s to stronger transatlantic relations in national security and technology. 🤝

@redglassvc @Nominal_io @CameronLMcCord Thank you!!!!

Thank you Lt Gov Driscoll for speaking at our conference and highlighting the SHIELD Initiative to attendees from around the country! #DefenseTech #NationalSecurity #TechNatSec2026

@MassLtGov @MIT @Harvard It was an honor to have Lt Gov Driscoll speak at our conference and share more about the state’s key role in national security and technology!

There is so much going for Massachusetts in our Defense Sector! That’s why our mission with the SHIELD Initiative is to create opportunities for economic growth, job creation, talent recruitment, and tech transitions. Together we can drive our state’s growth forward! Grateful to talk about our state as a national security powerhouse at the 2026 Technology and National Security Conference!

The vast majority of military decision making requires domain-specific AI models rooted in physics and mission-built to integrate with our coalition allies and partners. This was one of the key points made by Smack CEO @andymarkoff during this weekend's panel discussion on Decision Dominance for the Modern Front Line at the 5th annual @HarvardHBS and @MITSloan @TechNatSec Conference. Special thanks to all conference organizers, attendees, and speakers, as well as @gsands and the team at @costanoavc. We're already looking forward to next year.

That's a wrap on #TechNatSec2026! A massive thank you to all the speakers, the participants in our Innovation Showcase pitch competition and Call for Papers, and the leaders and builders in national security who attended. See you all in 2027! #ActaNonVerba

great time at @TechNatSec. exciting to have a conference that covers such a broad range of extremely pertinent topics.

Spent the day at @TechNatSec at MIT. Fantastic group of folks thinking about the real challenges we face with national security issues.

From our Artificial Intelligence panel: “It’s not just about going faster…in near term tactical decisions. It’s about being able to process all the information and implications simultaneously within and across theaters.” #TechNatSec2026 #ActaNonVerba #NationalSecurity #AI

From our Public-Private Investing panel: “National security investing is not the antiquated idea of bullet and bombs. It’s quantum and AI and everything…(To do this,) it’s critical to engage with the full capital stack.” #TechNatSec2026 #ActaNonVerba #NationalSecurity

From our Space panel: “We spend a tremendous amount of effort ensuring we have traceability in our supply chain…The hardest parts of what we do are all on the ground.” #TechNatSec2026 #Space #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech

From our Middle East panel: “"We (developed countries) are prioritizing geoeconomics…but there are two countries in the Middle East that are living by the sword: Iran and Israel.” #TechNatSec2026 #ActaNonVerba #DefenseTech #IranWar‌

From our Quantum panel: “These technologies have been brewing in labs for years…the challenge is how to make them exotic and sexy when they’re deployed in the field.” #TechNatSec2026 #DefenseTech #NationalSecurity #Quantum

From our Acquisition Reform panel: “Compliance is not an excuse to be slow, because we transfer that risk to the warfighter.” #TechNatSec2026 #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech #AcquisitionReform

From our Supply Chain panel: “We don’t have an economic security strategy…a lot of people look at the national security strategy and think ‘that’s enough’, but it’s not.” ##TechNatSec2026 #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech #SupplyChains

From our Arctic panel: “A lot of the infrastructure we’ve built in the North American Arctic is not today up to par with the threat landscape.” #TechNatSec2026 #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech #Arctic

We’re thrilled to be able to showcase @shieldaitech’s V-Bat at the @MIT campus: a prime example of the latest defense innovation for the frontlines. #TechNatSec2026 #DefenseTech

Beautiful morning for Day 2 of #TechNatSec2026! Looking forward to the insights and perspectives from all the speakers today. #NationalSecurity #DefenseTech
