Why Attend?

San Diego companies—especially those in national security and technology—face a well-known challenge: limited access to secure research and office space. The SDSU Mission Valley Innovation District is designed to solve this.

At full buildout, it will feature 1.6 million square feet of secure space, serving as the region’s hub for dual-use technology development. It will be a place where businesses of all sizes can collaborate with academia, connect with investors, access talent, and thrive in an ecosystem built for innovation.

By attending this event, you’ll:

• Get a sneak peek at the developments transforming San Diego’s innovation landscape.
• Take a behind-the-scenes tour of Snapdragon Stadium.
• Network with industry peers and leaders while enjoying appetizers and drinks in an exclusive stadium setting.
• See how your organization can benefit from the secure and collaborative opportunities within the Innovation District.

Imagine a place where your team can conduct sensitive research, host clients, and collaborate with partners—all just steps away from vibrant eateries, rooftop bars, residences, retail, and the relaxing Mission Valley River Park. That’s the future SDSU is building.

Spots are limited, so reserve your ticket today.

A portion of all ticket sales will go toward the SDSU WID STEM Endowment fund.
