2010 DoDIIS Worldwide Conference

The 2010 DoDIIS Worldwide Conference will be held 23-27 May in Phoenix Arizona. This venue is hosted by the Defense Intelligence Agency’s Directorate for Information Management and Chief Information Officer. The focus is on topics relevant to mission success for the Department of Defense Intelligence Information Systems (DoDIIS). DoDIIS is all about facilitating the collection, analysis and presentation of intelligence to tactical users and policy makers in a secure and timely manner.

This year’s agenda is particularly impressive. The agenda (which is pasted below as a reference) includes world class industry speakers like Joseph Tucci, CEO of EMC, and Dr. Steven Armentrout, CEO of Parabon. Government speakers include the leaders of DoD intelligence IT like Grant Schneider, Roy Apseloff, and Casey Henson. The national intelligence IT team will also be present in force, including a panel chaired by ODNI CIO Priscilla Guthrie.

The event will also hold an expo floor with 100′s of advanced technologies and mission-focused solutions being demonstrated. It is my intent to spend time with 100% of the companies that have decided to participate in the expo, this is a great way to take the pulse of technology that is ready for insertion into large enterprises and a great way to generate topics for future blog posts and for evaluation at CTOlabs.com
