Description

The Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) will host an in-person Proposers Day in support of DARPA Program Solicitation (PS) for Promethean Clay on February 25, 2026, at the DARPA Conference Center, 675 N. Randolph Street, Arlington, VA 22203 from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET. DARPA anticipates releasing the DARPA-PS-26-16 prior to Proposers Day. If released, the PS will be made available at https://sam.gov/. The goals of the Proposers Day are: (1) To introduce the science and technology community (industry, academia, and government) to the Promethean Clay program vision and goals; (2) To facilitate interaction between researchers with capabilities and interests relevant to the Promethean Clay program goals; (3) To collect questions during the event that DARPA may answer and make available in a Question and Answer document maintained at https://www.darpa.mil/research/programs/Promethean_Clay; and (4) To encourage and promote teaming arrangements among organizations that have the relevant expertise, research facilities, and capabilities for executing research and development responsive to the Promethean Clay program goals. The Proposers Day will include overview presentations by government personnel and opportunities for team building among the participants. It is anticipated that recording of the Proposers Day and materials will be posted online at https://www.darpa.mil/research/programs/Promethean_Clay.
