Program · Dec 9, 2026

One day. One room. Consecutive sessions. Everyone hears everything.

No parallel tracks. No breakouts running against the main stage. The program is designed so that legal, technical, investor, and regulatory voices sit through the same brief — and can be held to the same record afterwards.

    Panel

    Panel

    Panel · Investors

    Where capital is going, what it's underwriting, and the exposures LPs are starting to ask about by name.

    Panel

    Panel · Ecosystem showcase

    Curated, non-commercial round-robin: standards editors, open-source maintainers, and public-interest labs.

  9. 15:30#09
    Exercise

    Live governance tabletop — QCI Cyber Range.

    The whole room runs a single incident: a treasury-adjacent PKI compromise with quantum-adjacent disclosure obligations. Facilitated by QCI staff; two working-group chairs adjudicate.

  10. 17:00#10
    Main stage

    Closing synthesis and board agenda.

    Every attendee leaves with a one-page board memo template, populated from the day's decisions and reviewed by two chairs.
