Why you should attend this year’s Symposium:

This 12th Integrated C4ISR Systems Symposium aims to promote conversations around problem solving, collaboration and furthering R&D on enhanced C4ISR technologies aimed at mission success. The importance of C4ISR for the U.S. government lies in its ability to provide decision-makers with timely and accurate information, enable effective communication, enhance situational awareness, and support the planning and execution of military and government operations. It ensures that the U.S. can respond to threats, safeguard its interests, and maintain national security in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.

During this year’s iteration of DSI’s Integrated C4ISR Systems Symposium, leaders will cover an array of topics ranging from implementing upgraded systems to deliver enhanced warfighter protection and precision on the battlefield to mitigating threats arising from emerging technologies. Additionally, there will be sessions promoting partnerships with the commercial sector to achieve common goal of bolstering national security but also fostering partnerships with allies to deepen Transatlantic relations. This year’s panel will focus on the impact of emerging technology and AI in NATO and the implications for a strengthened alliance to tie together current pressing issues of concern.

DSI’s team specializes in the extensive research and development of our Symposiums’ content and focus areas, and we will assemble the most respected minds in C4ISR operations as well as key-policy makers across military and civilian offices. Our non-partisan approach allows us to reach across all services and organizations to bring together a truly holistic group of decision makers and solution providers.

Operating Guidance for Government Attendees:

DSI’s Symposium directly supports DoD and Federal Government priorities by providing a conduit for officials to efficiently reach audiences outside of their respective offices that directly impact their department's mission success, at no charge to the government, and in an efficient expenditure of time

DSI’s Symposium will provide a forum to address and improve internal and external initiatives, meet with and hear from partner organizations, disseminate vital capability requirements to industry, increase visibility within the larger community, and generally support their mission.

The Summit is open and complimentary to all DoD and Federal employees, is considered an educational training forum, and is a widely attended gathering.
