SUMMIT AGENDA

Below is the tentative agenda for the week. This is subject to change as speakers are confirmed. Sessions will take place at both the Charleston Area Convention Center and the Naval Information Warfare Center (NIWC) in Charleston, South Carolina. Sessions at the convention center will be unclassified and sessions at NIWC will require you to pass your clearance to participate. There is limited space at NIWC; therefore, we will be repeating the classified breakout sessions daily, and you will register for which day you would like to attend the classified portion of the event.
