Resilience Week 2026

Advancing Resilience Across Critical Infrastructure Systems, this cross-sector forum addresses the systems, risks, and technologies shaping national resilience. Resilience Week convenes researchers, operators, technology developers, and decision-makers focused on strengthening the systems communities and missions depend on every day. It serves as a platform where resilience moves from concept to application. Attendees engage across technical, operational, and policy perspectives to identify vulnerabilities across interconnected infrastructure systems, share real-world approaches to risk-informed resilience, explore emerging technologies shaping energy, cyber, and community resilience, and connect with partners advancing deployment across government and industry. As part of the broader Defense TechConnect Innovation Summit ecosystem, Resilience Week collaborates with federal agencies, industry leaders, and innovation programs to accelerate solutions aligned with national priorities. Key focus areas include securing America's digital energy infrastructure, resilient lifeline infrastructure for national security and community continuity, American energy dominance at the community level, powering critical loads (AI Datacenters, Advanced Nuclear, and Grid Resilience), and bridging insight to action with data-driven infrastructure resilience.
