Become a Sponsor

Where defense priorities meet industry execution.

AUVSI Defense is a focused, in-person forum where government and industry engage directly on the technologies, requirements, and pathways shaping the future of trusted autonomy. This is where priorities are clarified, acquisition approaches are discussed, and real opportunities begin to take shape.  

Sponsoring AUVSI Defense positions your company inside those conversations.  

Whether you are a prime, component manufacturer, or emerging autonomy company, sponsorship provides the opportunity to: 

• Engage directly with defense acquisition leaders, program managers, and contracting officials working near-term priorities
• Showcase your capabilities in a mission-focused environment designed for practical discussion, not passive exposure
• Gain insight into capability gaps, procurement drivers, and evolving requirements
• Strengthen your position within the defense industrial base supporting autonomy at scale 

AUVSI Defense is intentionally designed to be high-signal and outcome-oriented. As a complement to the scale and cross-sector reach of XPONENTIAL, this forum creates space for more targeted engagement, meaningful conversations, and stronger alignment between industry capabilities and government needs. 

If your goal is to be part of how autonomy is operationalized and delivered, this is where that work happens.
