What happens when your product gets tested in a live war zone? FirePoint CEO Iryna Terekh and Alta Ares CEO Hadrien Canter are building defense technology at a pace that peacetime procurement cycles never imagined. Missile systems, AI-guided drone interceptors, and battlefield-proven software developed under real operational pressure, often within kilometers of the front line. In conversation with Kristen Davis, they'll share what it actually takes to build fast, iterate under fire, and translate the hard lessons of Ukraine into the future of European security.
