18/20 Most of these partners have already made plans to host programming in March during #SXSW and the announcement by SXSW does not prohibit that in any way.

17/20 The commercial industry has participated as well, including Amazon Web Services, Booz Allen, Deloitte, Google, IBM, Microsoft, Raytheon, and many more.

16/20 🇺🇸 Since 2018, @CapitalFactory has been the center of gravity for government and defense related programming with more than 10,000 participants and government partners such as the Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines, DIU, NGA, SBA, DARPA, ARPA-H, FBI, and many of our allies.

15/20 📍@CapitalFactory is located in the center of downtown Austin, just a few blocks from the convention center.

14/20 🇺🇸 Our national security depends on collaboration between the government and the private sector to help find innovative solutions to our most pressing concerns. Capitalism is our nation's greatest competitive advantage in technology innovation.

13/20 💵 The military funds the risky deep-tech that venture capitalists are afraid of. The Army Futures Command @armyfutures has been an incredible community partner resulting in billions of dollars of local economic impact.

12/20 🇺🇸 The partnership between the US government and commercial technology is over a hundred years old and has produced world-changing innovations such as aviation, the internet, global telecommunications, and many others. ✈️🌎📡📱🚀

10/20 We look forward to continuing this relationship in 2025 and beyond as we navigate these sensitive issues together.

8/20 Capital Factory has enjoyed a long-standing partnership with @SXSW and believes it has had an immeasurable impact on Austin and the rest of the world by bringing together diverse voices and collaborators for decades.

6/20 We strive to provide a platform all-year-round where diverse ideas can flourish and pioneers from all sectors — including defense and technology — can come together to solve the world’s biggest challenges.

5/20 At @CapitalFactory, we believe that innovation thrives in an environment of inclusivity and collaboration.

4/20 🇺🇸 @CapitalFactory will be working closely with the @USArmy and other partners on government and defense-related events in March 2025. We also look forward to continuing our longstanding partnership with @SXSW in 2025 and beyond.
