The Golden Dome missile defense initiative marks a generational investment in layered, integrated defense. By combining space-based interceptors, advanced sensing, and resilient command-and-control, the $151 billion SHIELD contract vehicle reflects the urgency of emerging missile threats and highlights a significant opportunity for the defense industrial base.
However, the scope and scale of Golden Dome raise critical questions for industry: How will funding increase over time? How will architectural decisions affect cross-agency integration? How will acquisition strategies influence competition? And what does success look like from the DoD’s perspective?
During this Power Breakfast, Washington Technology will bring together defense officials, market analysts, and industry executives to discuss Golden Dome’s funding profile, architectural vision, and acquisition roadmap, enabling contractors to align their organizations for long-term participation in one of the defense sector’s most consequential modernization efforts.

This event will be a hybrid event consisting of vendor demonstrations and speaking sessions. The demos will be applicable to the Cybersecurity session topics. It will be promoted internally to the EXIM population and the Department of VA employees located at this location and across the street at the main VA HQ will also be invited.
About EXIM (from the EXIM.gov website):

In recent years, it has become abundantly clear that government data has emerged as the primary attack surface for international conflict—and that cyberspace is the principal battlefield. Cyber threats from global adversaries and near-peer nations alike have flooded American systems. Potomac Officers Club recognizes these imposing challenges and proudly presents the 2026 Cyber Summit. At this critical GovCon conference, attendees will join the extremely important conversation with noteworthy cyber officials from across the public and private sectors.
With less than a year until DOD’s 2027 deadline to become zero trust-compliant on all systems, understanding where defense (and civilian) agencies stand in their cybersecurity journeys is a requirement. Learn from industry leaders and forge new partnerships at this year’s Cyber Summit.
