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.

This initiative, solicited under DARPA-PS-25-05, invites industry, academia, and individual innovators to submit video pitches that demonstrate novel or newly applied technologies capable of advancing national security priorities. Submissions are evaluated monthly, with deadlines at noon Eastern Time on the last day of each month, and must conform to strict technical specifications: a single 7-minute MP4 video in 720p resolution under 1 GB, using Rec709 or sRGB color space, and containing only a valid copyright notice. The video must clearly articulate the problem being solved, the current state of the art, the proposed advancement, team expertise, and potential defense or commercial impact. The solicitation does not include pricing, line items, or estimated contract values, as awards are negotiated post-assessment on a case-by-case basis, with no ceiling on award amounts. Evaluations are conducted by a peer review panel of government, industry, and academic subject matter experts under strict organizational conflict of interest protocols, including mandatory ethics training, non-disclosure agreements, and prohibitions on reviewing submissions in which assessors have financial interests. Technical merit is assessed using two weighted factors: advancement of the state of the art (40%) and team capability (60%), with awards determined by a trade-off approach based solely on technical excellence and not cost. Submissions must align with specified topic areas including AI/ML convergence with chemistry and biology, human performance optimization, sensing systems, resilience against chemical and biological threats, and advanced metrology, while excluding previously solicited areas such as elusive target tracking. All deliverables are digital; no physical packaging, labeling, or MIL-STD compliance is required. Eligible offerors must provide a unique entity identifier from SAM.gov and disclose small business status or nontraditional contractor affiliation, with foreign ownership requiring additional disclosure and possible mitigation. The entire process—submission, assessment, negotiation, and potential award—is conducted through the ERIS portal, enabling government organizations to quickly discover, review, and engage with breakthrough innovations without traditional competition.
