Why You Should Attend this Summit

More than 300 million terabytes of data are generated every day worldwide. In an era defined by information overload, the Intelligence Community (IC) and Department of War (DoW), are increasingly focused on harnessing data and AI to strengthen national security. From AI-powered intelligence tools to accelerated data-sharing and a more data-literate workforce, these technologies are revolutionizing mission execution.

The 2025 Advanced Data Analytics for Warfare & Intelligence Summit will convene military leaders, intelligence professionals, data scientists, and technology experts to explore the strategic application of advanced analytics, AI/ML, and real-time data integration to enhance decision-making, threat detection, mission planning, and the future of warfare operations. Key topics include emerging data strategies across the IC & DoW, workforce development, data centricity, resiliency, and interoperability. Additional sessions will include how data is driving Warfighter lethality, cutting-edge technology solutions, and cross-agency data sharing and integration

We assemble the most respected minds in data analytics, as well as key-policy makers across the IC, military services, federal government agencies and civilian offices.
