CFIC was proud to participate in the inaugural Warfighter Information Advantage Symposium (WIAS) at the Georgia Cyber Innovation & Training Center. Our Hub Director, Robert Ross, PhD, delivered a presentation on Driving Innovation & Procurement in the DoD: Achieving Information Advantage in the Information Age.
As the Army revitalizes Electronic Warfare (EW), Cyber, and Signal capabilities, events like WIAS provide a crucial platform for collaboration between government, industry, and academia. This symposium emphasized the importance of modernizing force capabilities, evolving operational requirements, and leveraging emerging technologies to maintain an advantage in multidomain operations.
A huge thank you to the organizers and all who contributed to this critical discussion on the future of information dominance.
