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.

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)
