Sponsor Benefits

Recruit Exceptional Talent

Sponsors will have the opportunity to meet and work alongside outstanding students from Yale, Harvard, MIT, West Point and other leading universities — students who are deeply motivated to serve the country through careers in defense, public service, emerging technology, and strategic analysis.

Play in the Wargame (It's Actually Fun)

Sponsor organizations may send select representatives to join the Sunday wargaming simulations. These exercises are not merely games — they are serious educational tools used by militaries and policymakers to train judgment, test ideas, and prepare future leaders for the pressures of real-world decision-making.

But they're also genuinely engaging and enjoyable. Come prepared to strategize, collaborate, and compete alongside some of America's brightest future leaders.

Support America's Future National Security Leaders

Sponsors receive recognition throughout conference materials and programming as organizations willing to support strategic education and civic responsibility.

By backing Yale's first wargaming conference — focused on the frontier challenge of human conflict in the age of AI — sponsors signal a commitment to strengthening the intellectual foundations of American defense and supporting the education of future strategic leaders.
