Written By Brad Sollar

Mainsail Industries will attend SOF Week 2026 in Tampa, Florida. The event takes place May 18–21, 2026, with the exhibition hall open May 19–21.

SOF Week brings together the global special operations community, including operators, technologists, and mission partners focused on real-world operational challenges.

Mainsail will showcase Starlight, our edge-first infrastructure platform built for environments where connectivity is constrained and reliability is non-negotiable.

What we are bringing to SOF Week

At the event, Mainsail will demonstrate:

  • Secure application deployment across edge and distributed environments

  • Infrastructure designed to operate through network degradation or disconnection

  • Integrated partner solutions ready for procurement and field deployment

Attendees interested in a tailored walkthrough can schedule time with the Mainsail team during the event or set up a demo today.

Ready to revisit your enterprise security solution?

Traditional virtualization wasn't designed for today's edge requirements. Starlight is different.
