The Multi X Office will host an invitation-only Pitch Day on November 2, 2026, in Chicago, Illinois, aligned with the MXO Spark Tank event, to identify and fund innovative scientific discovery solutions aimed at short-term advancements in technical understanding, concept generation, and reduction of uncertainties that could lead to future DARPA programs. The initiative is designed to actively engage non-traditional performers, including small businesses and universities, particularly those that have never received a DARPA award as a prime contractor or have not had a Principal Investigator previously lead a DARPA-funded project, thus lowering barriers for new participants entering the national security research landscape. This effort seeks to diversify the pool of innovators by encouraging participation from organizations and individuals historically underrepresented in DARPA’s funding ecosystem, fostering fresh perspectives and novel approaches to address complex technical challenges.
