scif summit DC | September 10, 2026 | Washington, DC

The Convergence Room.

Our Value Proposition is the Density of the Right Intersections Between Physical Security Cybersecurity and Intelligence.

90 Seats for CSOs, CISOs, Founders, Investors, and Government Buyers.

BLUF

Companies that bridge physical-cyber-intelligence stacks command 10x-25x revenue multiples, far higher than pure play businesses.

CISOs and CSOs are increasingly working across domains to address hybrid threats. 

THE ROOM

Where physical security meets cyber and intelligence — off-the-record, noise-free, no booths. Curated for the leaders breaking silos. We create the intersections that siloed events cannot.


Boards demand convergence. CSOs and CISOs are consolidating budgets. Investors seek dual-use winners. SCIF Summit DC is where those conversations start.
