Why You Should Attend This Summit:

As the dangers presented by terrorism and organized crime continue to grow, US border agencies must consistently adapt to address new and evolving challenges. The success of efforts to utilize intelligent systems and data is critical to achieving current security objectives and ensuring the safety and prosperity of citizens and migrants alike.

The FY2023 budget provisions $56 billion for the Department of Homeland Security, $130 million towards increasing and improving CBP personnel and systems, and a $1.4 billion investment for DOJ immigration courts. This funding is critical towards achieving US border security goals and supporting the efforts of law enforcement agencies to detect, identify, and stop criminal activity.

The 2023 Summit will address the technologies and policies necessary to overcome current border security challenges as well as how to leverage those solutions across the Federal Government and IC. Additionally, a panel of Senior government & policy experts will examine the role of specific technological innovations and how they can support the goals of a 21st century border security strategy.

The Summit’s educational ‘Town Hall’ format will serve as a conduit for cross collaboration and the interchange of knowledge.
