This December, join the military leaders, investors, founders, and policymakers shaping the future of Europe’s defense for two days at the Shangri-La in Paris. Last year, our inaugural summit gathered hundreds of the continent’s most powerful defense players, tens of billions of dollars in capital, and the people building—and using—the most cutting-edge defense technology in one room.
This year, we’re going even bigger.
Over two days of sharp conversations and high-level networking, we’ll tackle the biggest questions facing European defense—with the people building, buying, and funding what comes next.
