Executive Lunch: Capital, Collaboration, and Regional Advantage

Our executive meal series is about connecting with other business leaders in a relaxed, intimate setting. Conversations are loosely facilitated by a Board of Trade member and address timely topics impacting the business community.
This conversation will explore:
- How the Greater Washington region can leverage emerging strengths like quantum and dual-use technologies to drive long-term economic value.
- What’s needed to bridge the gap between research and commercialization—including growth-stage capital, anchor institution leadership, and testbed infrastructure.
- Why inclusive capital strategies and cross-sector connectivity are essential for sustained regional competitiveness and resilience.
This is a member only event. For more details, please inquire through events@boardoftrade.org.
