Past event: Navy SSP Hypersonic Innovation Conference


US Navy Strategic Systems Programs, in partnership with the NavalX Midwest Tech Bridge, present the official 2022 Hypersonic Innovation Conference. The official 2022 Hypersonic Innovation Conference will emphasize the pressing need to advance American hypersonic technologies and leverage these technologies to achieve U.S. National Security goals. As nations around the world accelerate their development and production of hypersonic systems the pace of US developments needs to advance as well. Hypersonic weapons have the potential to change the balance of power in the Pacific and Europe and only a concerted effort across the DoD and with our allies will allow the US to maintain the balance of global power.

Open to US Citizens ONLY

2022 Topics of Discussion Include:

  • Transitioning Hypersonic Technologies from Prototypes to Operational Capabilities
  • DoD Efforts to Accelerate Innovation and National Security
  • Operationalizing Hypersonic Capabilities at the Speed of Need
  • The Strategic Challenges Hypersonic Weapon Systems Pose to National Interests
  • Leveraging Hypersonic Capabilities to Assure Freedom of Action for U.S. forces throughout the Indo-Pacific
  • Utilizing Lessons Learned from Commercial Sector Rapid Developments to Advance DoD Hypersonic Efforts
  • Investing in Innovative and Disruptive Technologies to Address the Emergence of New and More Advanced Hypersonic Threats

Why You Should Attend This Symposium:

This educational Symposium will bring together senior DoD officials, military leaders, academia, and solution providers to explore emerging concepts and capabilities in hypersonic weapons and systems across the joint force. With China, Russia, and other nations continuing to increase their funding and development of hypersonic capabilities the U.S. must continue to improve its own competencies and regain the spot it once held at the forefront of hypersonic technology.

The 2022 Hypersonic Innovation Conference will discuss the pressing for the need to progress hypersonic advancements throughout the DoD. As America's competitors across the globe continue to expand their regional and global aspirations.

This symposium will feature senior level discussions that emphasize the critical need for the rapid acquisition and development of hypersonic capabilities across all services. This program will allow for open and honest dialogue to solve the nation's most difficult technical and strategic challenges.
