Meetups for founders in Washington DC

29 upcoming startup networking & meetups for founders & investors in Washington DC. Curated events in the US.

Near-term Washington DC leans gov-tech and defense — STATION DC's vertical roundtables carry the next two months, with sessions on hypersonics (Jun 23), maritime (Jul 14), drones (Jul 28) and health tech (Jul 30) for operators working those niches. The marquee, DC Startup & Tech Week (Oct 19), is still four months out — 150+ events across the DMV when it lands. Until then, IC acquisition reform (Jul 8) and "How to Get Money From Congress" (Jul 9) are the most DC-specific picks.

One email every Monday: the Washington DC events worth planning around. Hand-filtered, with the fine print. Nothing else, ever.
