Please join the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security’s Forward Defense program for the next event in the Captains of Industry series, “Putting AI to work for national security”, on Thursday, November 14, 2024, from 4:00 p.m. to 5:15 p.m. ET at the Atlantic Council headquarters and via livestream. The event features keynote remarks by Justin Fanelli, Acting CTO for the Department of Navy & Technical Director of PEO Digital, followed by a moderated panel discussion with three chief executives—Caitlin Dohrman, CEO of Tangram Flex; Mihai Filip, CEO of Oves Enterprises; and Sean Moriarty, CEO of Primer.ai.

In the race to gain military advantage over global competitors, software engineering is the differentiating industrial competence. Acquisition managers are demanding software solutions, but how should the advent of AI change how governments acquire software and hardware solutions? At the cutting edge of these capabilities are companies employing artificial intelligence to integrate complexity and accelerate development, but how might these developments change the structure of the industry which serves national security? Looking ahead, what are the signposts of change we should be watching for to recognize the advances of these technologies and their impact on national security? 

This event will address these and other questions about how putting AI to work for national security is changing the business of defense.
