BlackSeaX 2026 | Launch of the Private Dual-Use Accelerator for the Black Sea Region

InnovX officially launched BlackSeaX, a private dual-use accelerator dedicated to strengthening technological resilience in the Black Sea region. Born from over two years of strategic collaboration with MIT Mission Innovation X, BlackSeaX introduces a structured 6–12 month acceleration model designed to move dual-use technologies from concept to operational deployment. This video captures the full forum experience: – Strategic keynotes – High-level policy perspectives – Investor and startup discussions – Academic alliance architecture – U.S. market expansion insights Featured speakers include: • Daniel Dumitrescu, PhD., CIO, InnovX • Keenan Galusha-Blatt, MIT Mission Innovation X • Sorin Moldovan, Deputy Minister of Defence • Clara Volintiru, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs • Sarah Alwine, FBI • Cristian Diaconescu, Ambassador • Cristian Marius Sporis, Raiffeisen Bank Romania • Eli Corso-Phinney, U.S. Embassy • Daniel Ilie, Former Commander, Special Operations Forces The forum brought together startups, venture capital, defence officials, academia, financial institutions, legal partners, and transatlantic ecosystem builders to align around one core principle: Resilience will be defined by speed — speed of innovation, speed of validation, and speed of deployment. BlackSeaX operates as a private acceleration model, independent of slow institutional timelines, built on ecosystem trust, operational feedback, and strategic capital. This is where defence, deep-tech, logistics resilience, maritime security, and transatlantic cooperation converge. The work continues beyond the forum.
