2026 Summit Metrics
SAFE Summit
For over 20 years, SAFE has led the policy dialogue on energy and national security, working alongside a coalition of retired 4-star admirals and generals to ensure America never relies on adversaries for energy, critical materials, or advanced transportation technologies. Resolutely non-ideological and tangibly impactful, SAFE convenes policymakers, industry, and defense leaders at its annual SAFE Summit.
SAFE Summit 2026 showcased 70+ speakers focused on energy, national defense, and economic resilience. Throughout the two days, 30 sessions, and over 800 attendees, here were some key quotes and memorable messages. Across the 2026 sessions, one theme stood out: proactive strategy beats reactive policy. Decisions made today will shape future security and prosperity. SAFE thanks the leaders, attendees, and sponsors who joined us for SAFE Summit 2026.
Memorable Messages from SAFE Summit 2026
We should take the ideology out of energy and mineral security. When Churchill switched their navy from coal to oil, he said that energy diversity is what creates security. It’s still true today.
