Defense & Design Coffee Club

Join a small group of founders, operators, investors, and ecosystem builders working across defense and dual-use spaces for an informal morning coffee in San Francisco. This is a no-pitch, no-panel gathering in Potrero Hill, hosted inside Whipsaw's studio. Come caffeinate and converse with people actively building and supporting companies in the defense and national security ecosystem. Whether you're navigating early government pilots, scaling into federal customers, or exploring how to responsibly work with the U.S. Government, this is a space to connect with peers who understand the terrain. If you are working through design, brand, human factors, manufacturability, or how a requirements document becomes hardware someone can actually operate, those are good conversations to have over coffee. Sponsored by Defense Entrepreneurs Forum (DEF), and Whipsaw Due to popularity from past Coffee Clubs, registration is capped at 50 and all +1s must register.
