SOF Week expanded to new heights in May, bringing together more than 25,000 operators, government leaders and industry partners in Tampa.

SOF Week is about connection and alignment. It provides a trusted environment where operational requirements, emerging technologies and strategic priorities come together in one place. Through briefings, demonstrations, exhibits and networking, the event accelerates conversations that directly impact capability development and mission success. 

Jointly supported by U.S. Special Operations Command and the Global SOF Foundation, the event hosted 864 exhibitors — 57% of them small businesses — plus 287 sponsors and a new SOF Week Outpost with 71 dedicated exhibitors. The gathering reinforced its position as the central hub for advancing SOF capability and collaboration.
