Join us for the DOE Boost Showcase Pitch Event, where innovation meets impact.

On December 11th, visionary entrepreneurs will pitch commercialization strategies for cutting-edge technologies developed in DOE laboratories. These startups are tackling some of the nation’s most urgent energy challenges, from strengthening grid resilience to securing domestic supply chains.

The Showcase is the culmination of the DOE Boost program, a partnership between the Department of Energy Office of Technology Commercialization, Sandia National Laboratories, and FedTech, designed to accelerate the path from lab innovation to market-ready solutions.

The energy landscape is evolving rapidly. The DOE Boost Showcase highlights solutions that align with DOE’s five priority areas:

⚡Advanced Nuclear and Domestic Energy Resources – Supporting U.S.-based energy production through next-generation nuclear technology.

🌐Energy Infrastructure and Grid Resilience – Modernizing infrastructure and protecting against natural and cyber threats.

💡Energy Efficiency – Deploying smart technologies to optimize energy use, reduce waste, lower costs, and build a more resilient energy system.

🔋Advanced Energy Production and Resource Security – Strengthening domestic supply chains for critical materials and energy systems.

🔬Advanced Materials – Driving innovation with breakthrough materials for energy and defense applications.

By attending, you will:

• Witness startups pitch their commercialization strategies for DOE lab-developed technologies.
• Gain insight into DOE’s national priorities and innovation pipeline.
• Connect with entrepreneurs, researchers, and industry leaders driving innovation in America’s evolving energy landscape.

This event is ideal for:

• Entrepreneurs and Startups looking to explore DOE-backed technologies and commercialization pathways.
