The theme of this year’s conference is DIA Next: Intelligence Technologies for Battlespace Lethality. America’s intelligence and military power are key to shaping perceptions and deterring strategic competitors. Military readiness and lethality across warfighting domains, theatres, and the spectrum of conflict are critical to preventing and decisively winning wars. Intelligence technologies serve as the linchpin of America’s advanced weaponry, intelligence, and command and control systems. When America wields a modernized, connected, and resilient technology enterprise, it bolsters global combat credibility, provides overwhelming battlespace advantage, and ensures that America’s strategic competitors incur significant costs for aggression and conflict.

The event takes place 9-12 Aug 2026 at the Tampa Convention Center
