Event Overview

Defense Strategies Institute presents the 11th annual Automated ISR and Battle Management Symposium. This educational forum will convene senior leaders from across DoD, Military Services, IC, Industry, and Academia for discussions centered on the modernization, synchronization, and integration of critical ISR capabilities to support the modern Warfighter. The Symposium will take place June 28-29, 2023 at the Sunset Room in National Harbor, MD.

ISR involves using a wide-array of platforms, sensors, and analytic capacity to create an awareness of adversary capabilities, dispositions, and likely intentions. Having this awareness is crucial to commanders for battle management. Accurate ISR data is critical for providing high-quality intelligence about enemy threats and serves to increase the effectiveness of military operations. This Symposium will provide a space for conversations between Government and industry professionals to discuss new developments in ISR technology and how they can be leveraged on the battlefield.

  • Advancing Air Force ISR & cyber dominance across the threat spectrum
  • Accelerating the modernization of the Army intelligence enterprise for next-generation ISR
