Dual-Use Academy, sponsored by Distinctive Edge Partners, is designed to help founders in the dual-use space secure non-dilutive funding through education, mentorship, organic connections, and exclusive access to government partners and network. 

The Academy offers expert guidance on positioning your company for funding success while teaching best practices for keeping your business compliant and qualified for government contracts. 

We introduce founders and entrepreneurs to key players in the defense, intel, and law enforcement communities, offering expert guidance on navigating the complex funding landscape. With help from our friends at DIU, AAL, AFWERX, and more, your company will be better equipped to navigate the nuts and bolts of how to sell to the government.
