Crucible Accelerator, led by the Inland Empire Tech Bridge and powered by FedTech, is launching its Fall 2026 cohort in October. The program runs through December, with weeks structured around the program offices, Warfare Centers, and acquisition leads that make up the Naval enterprise. It closes with Demo Day in week 8, a pitch to a curated room of investors, prime contractors, and government stakeholders. Top teams carry that into February 2027 with an invitation to the Warfighting Innovation Summit in Southern California.
