Why You Should Attend This Symposium

The Counter-IED Market is expected to reach US$1 Billion in 2025. DoD and the federal government are preparing for a new era of explosive ordnance disposal that will require innovative technology solutions to address new challenges. The 2024 EOD/IED & Countermine Symposium will convene leading experts and innovators to explore critical challenges, current initiatives, and future innovations in explosive ordnance disposal and countermine operations. Key themes of the conference include advancements in EOD techniques, large-scale clearance operations, innovative C-IED/EOD technology, and approaches to clearing landmines and unexploded ordnance (UXO) in post-conflict environments.

Amid an era of strategic competition, DoD, Federal Government, and the Military Services are striving to prepare for next-generation explosive threats it could face in future conflicts against more advanced adversaries. Leading experts and innovators at the event will discuss unmanned IED strategies, coordination of national and intergovernmental C-IED efforts, critical information/intelligence sharing, international partnerships, and innovative research and technology to support global IED defeat. Attendees at the 2024 EOD/IED & Countermine Symposium will gain valuable insights into the evolving nature of IED threats, advancements in EOD technology, significance of a whole-of-government approach, and best practices for training personnel to effectively identify, mitigate, and neutralize explosive devices
