SVH Capital Presents: Dual Tech Summit 2026

About the Event

Join us at the Dual Tech Summit 2026, hosted by SVH Capital! This premier gathering brings together innovators from the commercial tech landscape and the defense/public sector, fostering collaboration to pioneer a "dual-use" ecosystem. Our mission? To accelerate the deployment of state-of-the-art technologies—like AI, Robotics, Cybersecurity, and Space—into mission-critical environments, all while ensuring commercial scalability.

Our Mission 🎯

We're on a mission to empower founders to develop the next generation of dual-use technologies that enhance national security, economic resilience, and technological leadership.

Event Proceeds 💖

In partnership with American Legion San Francisco Post 1 and Post 599, we will be donating scholarships to support The American Legion California Boys & Girls State Program.

Say goodbye to lecture-style learning—this is government in motion!
