About this Event

Naval Surface Warfare Center, Carderock Division, in collaboration with Fairfax City Economic Development, will co-hos a reverse pitch day designed to unite the regionโ€™s academic, government, and industrial ecosystem on June 26, 2026 at the Stacy C. Sherwood Community Center in Fairfax City, Virginia. This event will cover sensors and autonomy, with a focus on smart sensors, robotics, data analysis, and self-governing systems.

This collaboration builds on a Partnership Intermediary Agreement signed in July 2025, which established a strategic cooperative agreement between Carderock and Fairfax City Economic Development to foster innovation in Fairfax and the surrounding region, and its businesses and educational institutions. Under the Capital Tech Bridge initiative, this partnership leverages Carderockโ€™s world-class naval engineering expertise to engage local businesses and educational institutions. Together, the organizations aim to accelerate technology transfer, drive economic growth, and support workforce development initiatives that benefit both the federal government and the local community.
