Fed Supernova DC

Fed Supernova DC is a standalone event under the Fed Supernova brand—Capital Factory’s flagship platform advancing national security through startup-driven innovation. While Fed Supernova Austin brings together thousands across the entire defense innovation ecosystem, FSN DC zooms in on the policy, funding, and acquisition systems that shape how emerging technologies reach the field. This one-day, 300-person summit at STATION DC brings together startups, investors, and policymakers to converge for bold conversations, live pitches, and policy in action. Because the future of innovation isn’t just built in boardrooms—it’s shaped where decisions are made: Washington, DC. Fed Supernova DC is built to connect startups and policymakers in the same room—sparking the candid conversations and cross-sector relationships needed to drive meaningful reform. Together, FSN Austin and FSN DC offer a full-spectrum view of national security innovation—from the demo floor to the decision-makers shaping the future.
