DESCRIPTION:DARPA’s Multi X Office (MXO) is headed to Chicago from Nov. 2-4\, 2026\, to host MXO Spark Tank\, an in-person event designed for prospective proposers\, future collaborators\, and innovative thinkers.\n\nLaunched in May 2026 as the next generation of DARPA’s former Microsystems Technology Office\, MXO builds upon the successes of its predecessor to expand beyond traditional microsystems and microscale technologies. The office is pursuing multi-scale\, multi-disciplinary approaches that apply the physical sciences in new and unconventional ways to create capabilities with the potential to reshape future military and economic advantage.\n\nSpark Tank is the first major opportunity for the curious to engage with MXO since its launch. Participants will have the opportunity to:\n\n 	Learn first-hand about MXO’s remit\, technical thrusts\, and emerging areas of interest\n 	Engage directly with program managers via one-on-one sidebar meetings to explore research alignment and potential opportunities for collaboration\n 	Explore opportunities\, entry points\, and pathways for working with MXO
