About
The forum convenes investors, naval and maritime leaders, government stakeholders, founders, and strategic partners to examine how geopolitical shifts, naval modernization, and the evolving security landscape are driving investment and innovation across the maritime defense ecosystem. Key content includes keynotes, investor panels, startup showcases, and discussion of emerging opportunities in autonomous systems, subsea technologies, maritime cybersecurity, dual-use innovation, ocean surveillance, resilient supply chains, and next-generation defense infrastructure. The event is open to the general public and held at the “Distribution A” level. UTIC and the Blue Venture Forum jointly sponsor and produce the forum.
