Proposers Day: APM

DARPA will host a hybrid Proposers Day in support of the Atomically Precise Molecules (APM) program on Sept. 30, 2026, in Arlington, Virginia, and via webcast from 9 a.m. - noon ET.

DARPA anticipates releasing the APM program solicitation prior to Proposers Day. If released, the solicitation will be made available at https://sam.gov/.

The goals of the Proposers Day are:

• To introduce the science and technology community (industry, academia, and government) to the APM program vision and goals
• To facilitate interaction and encourage teaming between researchers with relevant capabilities and interests
• 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/APM
• To encourage and promote teaming arrangements among organizations that have the relevant expertise, research facilities, and capabilities for executing multidisciplinary research and development responsive to the APM 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/APM.

Registration closes on Sept. 23, 2026.
