Mission Critical: The Rise of Dual-Use Innovation

Join VEF in collaboration with SFU Venture

Labs for a timely discussion exploring how founders are building technologies that serve both commercial markets and critical public needs.

From cleantech, climate technology, and life sciences to crisis communications, emergency management, and critical infrastructure, this conversation will examine the rise of dual-use innovation and how technologies developed for one market can create value across multiple commercial and public-sector applications.

Attendees will gain practical insights into commercialization strategies, government and industry partnerships, investment opportunities, and what it takes to scale technologies with both economic and societal impact.
