SUMMARY:Velocity Summit
DESCRIPTION:The North Carolina Military Business Center and The Protocase Companies will co-present the Velocity Summit on November 17\, 2026 in Wilmington\, North Carolina.  \nThe Velocity Summit is a one-day event built around a central premise: America’s defense manufacturing capacity problem is\, at its heart\, a velocity problem. The United States possesses extraordinary engineering talent\, technology\, capital and advanced manufacturing expertise.  However\, modern requirements are exposing the consequences of an industrial system that can take years to translate needs into manufactured capability\, struggle to expand production when demands change\, and it is highly dependent on complex supply chains. \nThe Velocity Summit will convene senior leaders from across North Carolina and the national defense ecosystem\, including top representatives from advanced manufacturing\, aerospace and maritime industry\, logistics and supply chain\, the U.S. military and federal government\, public policy\, academia and research\, workforce development\, technology\, and economic development.  \nThe Velocity Summit will focus on a fundamental question: what would have to change for the United States to become dramatically faster at turning a military need into manufactured capability at scale\, and how can North Carolina lead the way? Participants will examine the entire industrial pathway\, including where time is lost between a requirement and a production-ready design; how shipyards\, aerospace manufacturers and their suppliers can expand throughput; how manufacturers can accommodate engineering changes without resetting lengthy processes; how smaller machine shops and component suppliers can enter programs faster; and how new manufacturing technologies can transition into production.  \nDiscussions at the Velocity Summit will address production issues\, supply chain resilience\, workforce development\, advanced manufacturing technologies\, and strategies to strengthen the Defense Industrial Base. The Velocity Summit will spotlight North Carolina’s manufacturing\, military\, research\, and logistics capabilities and how they can be leveraged to accelerate defense manufacturing and support national security objectives.  \nWhen. November 17\, 2026 from 9:00 a.m. – 3:45 p.m.  \nWhere. Cape Fear Community College\nUnion Station Conference Center\, Room 508\n502 N Front Street Wilmington\, NC 28401  \nParking Information.
