About Us
DC Edge was founded by Dawn Morrissey, the founder of Data Connectors — one of North America’s largest cybersecurity communities. With more than 20 years of experience bringing together cybersecurity leaders, vendors, and enterprise teams, Dawn built DC Edge to create private, curated executive experiences built around access, trust, and meaningful business conversations.
DC Edge is not a conference spin-off. It is a fundamentally different format — designed specifically for leaders who no longer have time for events that don’t move the needle.
