Panel Discussion: SPACE & DEFENSE TECH – SD Chapter

March 27, 2025 By Ivan Rosenberg Leave a Comment

San Diego Chapter meeting on April 15, 2025

Meeting location: Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton LLP
12275 El Camino Real, Suite 100, San Diego, CA 92130-4092
Meeting Date: Tuesday, April 15, 2025
Meeting Time:
Networking & Refreshments, 4:30-5:30 PM:
Presentation: 5:30-7:00 p.m.

As geopolitical tensions rise and technological advancements accelerate, investment in space and defense tech has surged. Venture capital and venture debt are playing an increasingly vital role alongside investment banking. In 2024, venture capital funding for space startups resumed its growth trajectory, while defense technology saw record investment as governments and private sector players prioritized security and resilience.

Please join us in San Diego on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, (4:30-7:00pm Networking and Panel Discussion) to hear three experts at the forefront of this dynamic market: Everardo Gomez (Director, Technology Banking Group, Bridge Bank, a division of Western Alliance Bank), a bank debt lender providing capital and full banking services to venture start-up companies, Arthur Karell (General Partner, First In), a venture capital investor identifying and backing disruptive innovators in defense, and Paul Weisbrich (Managing Director, KAL Capital), an investment banker structuring complex deals to fuel expansion in the aerospace, defense, and space industry. Together, they’ll offer insights into the current funding environment, approach to valuations and other trends shaping the future of space and defense technology.

The meeting is free for members & $30 for non-members until April 8 ($40 thereafter). For more information and to register to attend the meeting go to http://adfsdapr25.eventbrite.com.

The San Diego chapter is sponsored by Moss Adams and LevitZacks, and hosted by Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton.
