In today’s combatant environment, sensors have become an integral component of nearly all military weapons, vehicles, operations and systems. The U.S. military’s situational domain awareness, detection, surveillance and deterrence capabilities all rely on data collected from sensors, bringing sensing technology to the forefront of the Pentagon’s priorities. U.S. Marine Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger has said “sensi...

New strategies, capabilities and innovations are on the horizon for the U.S. Army as the service branch works to build up and maintain a resilient, 21st century force ready to respond to the complex and emerging challenges of today. The Army’s Digital Transformation Strategy, as well as its Unified Network Plan, outline a clear path towards modernization as the military branch accelerates its digitally-enabled, data-driven transformation...

The DoD is constantly trying to keep pace with an evolving adversary, which creates challenges in the combat environment with the readiness of our forces and their ability to regain readiness against an enemy that can challenge us across the board. The key to innovating is the speed of integrating and exploiting innovative technology into the digital battlefield through data-driven decisions and investments that enable information advantage to...

As JADC2 leaders set to connect disparate data systems and build the digital infrastructure for the future battle, they must ensure they are thinking beyond the now. This session will explore the fundamental principles and solutions needed for implementation. We will examine areas such as the tactical edge, a common data fabric, and the decision advantage.

U.S. warfighters continue to leverage Joint All Domain Operations (JADO) to help manage the information overload of the battlefield. By uniting defense systems and data sources with simplicity, JADO provides a complete picture of the battlespace across all domains enabling warfighters to quickly make decisions that drive action to achieve an operational and information advantage in both competition and conflict.As battlefield competition cont...

As the future of warfare becomes increasingly reliant on information and digital tactics, our adversaries are employing information warfare to achieve overmatch – even before the physical war begins. With great power competition, information superiority is critical to success on the Digital Battlespace. Join us to discuss the challenges of the electromagnetic spectrum, including spectrum competition in a contested and congested environme...

Soldiers need physical fitness and mental fortitude to keep them one step ahead of the adversary. The proliferation of wearable technology and the biofeedback and neurofeedback data it generates have created new opportunities to quantify and evaluate tactical athletes’ performance and leverage quantitative data to design the highest performing squads. Now, it’s time for a strategy that leverages human performance expertise from th...

During Potomac Officers Club’s 5th Annual Army Forum, notable federal and industry leaders will discuss the progress, innovations and accomplishments of the Army’s modernization renaissance over the last year, what challenges remain, and how industry can help in 2021 and beyond. Join Potomac Officers Club for the 5th Annual Army Forum, featuring Bruce Jette, assistant secretary of the Army for Acquisition, Logistics, and Technolog...

The Department of Defense’s business practices and approaches were not traditionally designed to quickly field emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality, cloud computing, advanced data analytics; however, these technologies have shifted the world around us. As the federal government and defense agencies continue to integrate more emerging technologies, the public and private sectors must present a united fro...

During Potomac Officers Club’s upcoming Unmanned Systems in the Future Fight forum, leaders across the services will discuss the future battlespace and the critical role unmanned systems will play. Topics to be covered include: What will the battlespace look like? What systems and capabilities will be necessary in the future “family of systems”? How are technologies such as AI, 5G, and edge computing powering the future of u...
