4th EOD/IED & Countermine Symposium



This year's theme is "Combating the Global & Homeland IED Threat Through Joint Operations"

The only whole-of-Government IED event bringing together DoD, DHS, Federal Agencies & local/civil bomb technicians. The 2016 EOD/IED & Countermine Symposium will bring together the mission relevant representatives in our neutral “townhall” forum in order to focus on current and future C-IED/EOD initiatives that support battlefield operations, homeland defense, and peacekeeping operations.

Topics to Be Covered This Year:

  • Leveraging Private Sector Collaboration to Support Enhanced Counter-IED Operations
  • Next Generation Information Sharing and Reporting Methods for EOD/IED reporting
  • Near and Future R&D Efforts to Advance Detection and Neutralization Capabilities
  • Defining Acquisition Priorities for Effective IED/EOD Countermeasures
  • Addressing IED/EOD Challenges in Asymmetrical Warfare Environments
  • Effective Countermine Capabilities Integration in Expeditionary Forces
  • Coordinating Intergovernmental and Interagency Counter-IED Efforts
  • Advanced Threat Network Identification Capabilities

Operating Guidance For Government Attendees: 

  • DSI’s Symposium directly supports DoD, DHS, and public sector priorities by providing a conduit for officials to efficiently reach audiences outside of their respective offices that directly impact their department's mission success, at no charge to the government, and in an efficient expenditure of time.
  • DSI’s Symposium will provide a forum to address and improve internal and external initiatives, meet with and hear from partner organizations, disseminate vital capability requirements to industry, increase visibility within the larger community, and generally support their mission.
  • The Summit is open and complimentary to all DoD and Federal employees and is considered an educational and training forum. (Industry and Academia members are charged a fee for admission)
