5th Annual Innovators' Showcase

Is your organization developing technologies that would enhance U.S. intelligence and national security missions? Put those independent research and development (IR&D) efforts before an audience of leading government scientists, technologists and engineers at the 5th Innovators’ Showcase. 

The Intelligence and National Security Alliance (INSA) has presented the Innovators’ Showcase since 2010, in collaboration with the National Intelligence Science and Technology Committee of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) and other U.S. intelligence agencies. This annual exhibition provides a unique forum for the private sector, public-private enterprises and academia to present their innovative IR&D projects to an ODNI-selected panel of government scientists and technologists. The Innovators’ Showcase is an excellent opportunity to broaden your organization’s IR&D portfolio and advance submitted research projects.

If you have an IR&D project addressing one or more topics of interest (see reverse), your organization is encouraged to submit a nonproprietary, unclassified, one-page abstract for initial review and evaluation by INSA’s Council on Technology and Innovation, chaired by Dr. Bob Farrell of Seneca Technology Group. 

The Council’s recommendations will be reviewed by the ODNI with the best-qualified submissions that they find of interest invited to present a more detailed briefing – at the TS/SCI, unclassified and/or proprietary level, as appropriate – at the Innovators’ Showcase, scheduled for July 17, 2015 in McLean, VA. Selected submissions will receive additional information. 

While not every abstract submitted to INSA will be able to present at the Showcase, all abstracts will be compiled in the Showcase materials that are distributed to the scientists, technologists and management teams from ODNI and other intelligence agencies.
