About the Conference
The landscape of defense training is undergoing a profound transformation with the emergence of synthetic training. Synthetic environments, integrating cutting-edge technologies such as virtual reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, and artificial intelligence, are reshaping traditional training methodologies, and offering a vital means to enhance readiness and resilience among military personnel.
Against this backdrop, the National Summit on Training, Modeling & Simulation serves as a premier forum for senior U.S. DoD leaders and NATO partners to explore the evolution of defense training. The summit will facilitate discussions on key topics, including the integration of emerging technologies to enhance user interface, modeling, the adoption of common data environments, LVC architecture, interoperability challenges, cyber security and cloud solutions, and the strategic implications of synthetic training.
The Conference runs under Chatham House rule with no media or press in attendance. Participants are strictly vetted; certain citizens are not admitted to the conference.
