TOPICS TO BE COVERED

  • Leading DoD efforts to defend against current & future nuclear, chemical, & biological threats
  • Deterring & preventing strategic attacks against the U.S. & allies
  • Generating cost-effective & innovative capabilities to safeguard the Warfighter from CBRN threats
  • Adapting & modernizing to provide rapid response to CBRNE threats
  • Local response to CBRN incident in major U.S. city
  • Investigating & preventing CBRN & explosive weapon threats to the U.S. & global partners
  • Utilizing emerging tech to aid response & recovery in a CBRN affected dense urban environment
  • Improving coordination with state & local partners to advance CBRN preparedness

With the increasing complexity of the global security environment, the threat of an accidental or intentional chemical, biological, radiological, or nuclear attack on the U.S. is becoming a growing threat. Developing the technologies and solutions necessary to mitigate and respond to CBRN threats is critical. Attendees will gain valuable insights into the continued development of capabilities to increase the resiliency and preparedness of DoD, Federal, State & Local entities to understand, protect, and mitigate CBRN incidents and hazards.

This year’s Symposium will convene senior level experts from across the military, federal government, state and local responders, and academia to explore effective CBRN incident detection, protection, and recovery strategies amid a dynamic threat environment. The 2024 Symposium will also feature a panel that will highlight the utilization of emerging technologies and capabilities to bolster recovery and response in a CBRN affected densely populated urban environment. The discussion will highlight the challenges of operating in an urban environment and the implementation of innovative tech such as AI, ML, unmanned/autonomous platforms, and microsensors that can strengthen detection for CBRN releases. Attendees at the 12th Annual Joint Civil & DoD CBRN Symposium will have the unique opportunity to hear from key decision makers and subject experts in the CBRN community regarding defense, mitigation, and response to current and emerging CBRN threats and challenges.

DSI’s team specializes in the extensive research and development of our Symposium’s content and focus areas, and we will assemble the most respected minds in the CBRN defense community, industry, and academia as well as key policy makers across military and civilian offices for a critical discussion on challenges of countering CBRN threats. 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.

DSI’s Symposium directly supports DoD, Federal Government, and State & Local Government CBRN 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 Symposium is open and complimentary to all DoD, IC, and Federal employees and is considered an educational training forum, and a widely attended gathering.
