The full Special Operations ecosystem—operators to innovators.
SOF Week is designed for the entire spectrum of the Special Operations enterprise. The event brings together special operations personnel, government and military leaders, acquisition professionals, industry innovators, and international partners from across the globe.
Operators attend to explore emerging capabilities, engage directly with solution providers, and stay aligned with mission priorities. Government and acquisition professionals use the week to evaluate technologies, connect with industry, and advance programs that support operational needs. Industry partners participate to better understand real-world requirements and demonstrate solutions in front of the people who use them.
The event also welcomes academics, researchers, and non-profit organizations whose work supports the SOF community. Together, these audiences create a unique environment where ideas move quickly from concept to capability.
Key audiences include:
- Special operations operators and commanders
- U.S. and international government and acquisition leaders
- Defense and security industry partners
- Research, academic, and non-profit organizations
- Allied and partner-nation representatives
