AFCEA & DIA TECHINT Conference 2023

The AFCEA-TECHINT Conference, a revival of the annual TECHINT series of MASINT-focused events, will be held in the DIA Reston Campus R-1 Conference Center on September 19-20, 2023. This classified (TS/SI/TK/NOFORN) two-day event is a forum for industry, academia, and intelligence community professionals to learn about the hard problems and technical challenges facing the MASINT and S&T enterprises.

The conference will focus on informing government, industry and academia partnerships that are essential to meeting the intelligence demands posed by integrated cross-domain threats. Our discussions will be informed by presentations highlighting MASINT capabilities and opportunities to uniquely collect, report, and produce scientific and technical intelligence to address the Department’s – and the Nation’s -- priority intelligence needs. An assessment of the MASINT S&T environment and the capabilities needed will be deepened by an appreciation of implementation of the MASINT Enterprise Strategy FY25-29. Through these discussions, symposium participants will gain a more informed perspective on evolving MASINT S&T requirements and the opportunities for partnerships to address today’s pressing intelligence needs while optimally positioning the U.S. MASINT enterprise to deliver timely, relevant intelligence beyond 2030.
