North Carolina Installation Innovation & Modernization Symposium
April 18 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
“Leveraging Technology and Data to Better Inform the Future”
The North Carolina Installation Innovation and Modernization (NCI2M) Symposium is intended to facilitate collaborative discussions on infrastructure and Quality of Life issues in North Carolina. Military installation commanders, and city leaders will engage in panel discussions on the challenges of integrating standardized networked SMART technologies with the DoD network and systems. Industry subject matter experts will be able to engage civic and military leaders to discuss advances in technology and share their perspectives on innovative ways to leverage Smart technology sensors and data.
Theme
Innovation and Resiliency – Leveraging technology and data to better inform the future.
Event Problem Statement
Military installations face difficulties in adopting SMART technologies at a pace that is comparable to that of our city counterparts. As the United States modernizes its military forces, military installations must be adaptive, resilient, sustainable, and capable modern installations that enhance strategic readiness. How can North Carolina military installations leverage and implement smart city initiatives, processes, or technologies to create modern installations capable of supporting strategic readiness of our military?
Objectives
- Military installation commanders, and city leaders discuss challenges of integrating standardized networked SMART technologies with the DoD network and systems resulting in…?
- Industry subject matter experts engage civic and military leaders to discuss advances in technology and share their perspectives on innovative ways to leverage Smart technology sensors and data.
- Recommendations of future projects submitted through IMCOM to the Army Installation Modernization Council of Colonels for consideration in future Army Installation Modernization Pilot Program projects.
Business Participation
The North Carolina Military Business Center highly encourages Summit and other businesses to participate in the NCI2M Symposium. Per the above description, military commanders in North Carolina are seeking industry-provided input, suggestions, and recommendations that the commanders can submit through their respective installation management commands to support future pilot projects to implement SMART technologies in facilities on installations in North Carolina.
