Technology Park Ljubljana is organizing an online webinar focused on the challenges and opportunities facing dual use and defense technology startups as European and NATO defense innovation initiatives continue to expand.

The event will examine how companies developing technologies with both civilian and military applications can access funding, accelerator programs, and defense markets. According to the organizers, the webinar will provide an overview of the specific requirements that distinguish dual use and defense ventures from conventional technology startups.

Topics scheduled for discussion include the definition and characteristics of dual use technologies, product development considerations, financing options, and market entry strategies. Organizers also plan to address how defense customers, investors, and specialized accelerator programs assess emerging technologies and startups operating in the sector.

The webinar will further review opportunities available through European, NATO, and national defense innovation programs. Particular attention will be given to pathways through which Slovenian startups and technology companies can engage with the developing defense innovation ecosystem.

According to Technology Park Ljubljana, the event is intended for startups, technology firms, research teams, spin-off companies, investors, mentors, and other stakeholders interested in defense, security, and dual use technologies.

Growing defense spending across Europe and increased emphasis on technological sovereignty have created new opportunities for startups seeking to enter defense and security markets. However, participation in the sector often requires compliance with specialized procurement processes, regulatory frameworks, and customer requirements that differ from traditional commercial technology markets.

The webinar will be held online via Zoom and is open to registered participants.
