Big ideas. Bold conversations. Atlanta's element. 🔥
With @VentureAtlanta bringing entrepreneurs and investors together and @avantsouth exploring the future of technology AI, last week was another reminder of what makes Atlanta a hub for innovation, investment, and the ideas shaping what’s next.

Hard problems, big ideas, and a full room. That was #VA2026 for deep tech🚀
@VentureAtlanta brought together founders, investors, and builders from across the Southeast, and one thing stood out above everything else: the energy around #DeepTech. Semiconductors, hardware, and the hard problems that take years to solve are finally getting the spotlight they deserve. For @FalcommInc, that was the best part of the week.
To everyone who came out to the Falcomm happy hour: thank you. The conversations, the ideas, and the people made it an evening to remember🥂
This is only the beginning. Falcomm is committed to growing a stronger deep tech community right here in #Atlanta, one that brings together the engineers, founders, and investors building what comes next.
The next event is coming. Tag someone who should be in the room. 👇
