UPCOMING
Global Digital Engineering Defense Summit
Defense at the Speed of Relevance
April 29-30, 2026
Wichita, KS | USA
Advancing mission outcomes through digital engineering, model‑based practices, and data‑driven decision superiority.
Compressed timelines, complex systems, and rapidly evolving threats demand decisive action — not passive awareness. Hosted in partnership with NIAR at Wichita State University, this invite‑only global forum convenes senior leaders from defense ministries, government agencies, industry and aerospace organizations to examine how digital engineering accelerates decisions, strengthens readiness, and sustains capability across the mission lifecycle.
Participants will engage in focused discussions on:
• Strategic alignment: Translating national defense priorities into executable digital engineering roadmaps
• Operational execution: Scaling pilots into enterprise programs with measurable mission impact
• Resilience & sovereignty: Ensuring interoperability, agility, and trusted data across multinational operations
• Digital impact: Converting intent into results through model-based, data-driven approaches
This is a working summit — not a static conference. Sessions are designed for candid dialogue, peer exchange, and actionable outcomes. The agenda will adapt to emerging operational realities and evolving defense priorities to ensure relevance at the speed the mission demands.
