Pushing the Boundaries of IT to Solve Present and Future Warfighting Challenges

AFCEA NOVA is proud to host our 9th Annual Joint Warfighter IT Day on Thursday, September 1, 2016, at the Sheraton Tysons Hotel. This one-day conference provides an unparalleled opportunity to hear from and meet senior military and civilian leaders from OSD, the Combatant Commands, the Military Services, and DoD Agencies.

The top-tier list of senior speakers includes:

• CIOs from DOD, USAF, and DISA
• Top acquisition leaders from OSD, COCOMs, and Joint and Service PEOs
• Operations leaders from Joint Staff and the National Counterterrorism Center

These experienced leaders are expected to address:

• Their largest warfighting challenges
• Expectation for solutions from Information Technology and the IT community
• Efforts to increase the speed of acquisition while improving efficiency and effectiveness
• New and continuing efforts to spur innovation throughout their organizations and ultimately to the battlefield
• Successes and challenges of a mutually supportive partnership with industry to support the warfighter
• Trends in cybersecurity, cloud, mobility, architecture, automation, data analysis and so much more!

This event also provides an opportunity for Small Businesses that is unequalled in the National Capital Region. Participating Small Business are invited to to present their capabilities to other firms, both Large and Small, in a dedicated networking session. In addition to Large Businesses looking to form partnerships with small businesses, we will have several representatives from government Small Business Offices in attendance.

Join us on 1 September to engage with these senior DOD leaders as they share their insights into current issues, priorities, philosophies, directives and goals that are driving warfighter support systems planning, acquisition, and sustainment. This is an outstanding opportunity to personally meet these senior Defense leaders and to "plant the seeds" for future visits to their staffs. Additionally, you will learn what other companies are doing with these warfighter agencies, which can foster partnership opportunities

Given today’s strategic and budgetary challenges and the ever-increasing pace of technological innovation, the 9th Annual AFCEA NOVA Joint Warfighter IT Day is a must-attend conference.
