Sponsorship Opportunities
The Nuclear Deterrence Summit is the only unclassified forum where NNSA leadership, national laboratory directors, weapons complex contractors, DoD officials, and the full NSE supply chain gather under one roof. NDS 2026 set an all-time record — 732 registrants, $885K in registration revenue, 35 sponsors, and 37 exhibitors — and NDS 2027 builds on that foundation with an even stronger audience.
Sponsors gain direct access to the executives, program managers, and business development professionals who shape nuclear modernization strategy and procurement across the enterprise. No other event in the sector delivers this concentration of decision-makers in a single setting.
No other unclassified event concentrates NNSA, DOE, DoD, and congressional principals in a single room. NDS 2026 keynoted with the STRATCOM Commander, the NNSA Administrator, and a sitting U.S. Senator.
94% of 2026 attendees came specifically to network. Your brand and your team are positioned at the center of three days of high-value, mission-focused relationship-building across the full enterprise.
Registration revenue has grown every year since 2022 — up 59% from 2023 to 2026. With 73% of 2026 attendees planning to return, NDS 2027 is on track for another record year.
