MXO Pitch Day 2026DARPA-PA-26-07 announces the MXO Pitch Day 2026, a solicitation designed to identify and fund high-potential, early-stage research proposals that aim to break new ground in three transformative thrust areas: a world beyond electronics, foundations beyond components, and materials beyond nature and current synthetic practice. The initiative seeks to catalyze scientific discovery through short-term efforts of up to 12 months with a maximum funding cap of $500,000 per award, focusing on advancing fundamental understanding, reducing technical uncertainty, and laying the groundwork for future breakthroughs. Eligibility is intentionally restricted to non-traditional performers, small businesses without prior DARPA prime awards, and university teams whose principal investigators and co-principal investigators have never led a DARPA-funded project, with the explicit goal of diversifying DARPA’s performer base and removing barriers to entry for new participants. Proposals must be submitted as a single unclassified abstract not exceeding five pages via the DARPA BAAT portal, using a mandatory template, and must include a clear problem definition, understanding of the current state of the art, and potential to inspire future research. No subcontractors, consultants, travel, publications, or subawards are permitted under any circumstances. All proposers must hold a valid CAGE code, be registered or in process of registering in SAM.gov, and affirm CMMC Level 1 compliance through the Supplier Performance Risk System. Fundamental research proposals require submission of biographical sketches and current/pending support forms for key personnel as part of DARPA’s Foreign Influence Review process. AI tool usage in proposal preparation must be disclosed and cited, though it does not influence evaluation. The solicitation operates under an Other Transaction for Research authority, not a traditional FAR contract, and contains no line items, CLINs, or formal contract clauses. Evaluation is based solely on technical merit, emphasizing the significance of the problem, potential for breakthrough impact, and the proposer’s vision and expertise, with cost considerations entirely excluded. The primary performance requirement is in-person participation at the MXO Pitch Day event in Chicago on November 2, 2026, where selected proposers will present their ideas; awards will be made immediately following the event without negotiation. Organizational conflicts are mitigated through stringent eligibility rules prohibiting prior DARPA leadership experience and eliminating third-party involvement. No options, extensions, or post-award modifications are anticipated, and all submissions must be unclassified and free of proprietary markings beyond basic labeling.
