Tech Grove staff had the opportunity to attend the Congressional Modeling & Simulation (M&S) Leadership Summit, sponsored by the NATIONAL TRAINING & SIMULATION ASSOCIATION (NTSA), on February 18th. The summit brought together the M&S Community of Practice to address critical issues impacting our nation's security and resiliency. Discussions focused on leveraging M&S, generative AI, and advanced technologies to reduce vulnerabilities across infrastructure sectors like energy, climate, and disaster management, as well as defense. ?? Thank you to the Congressional M&S Leadership Summit for having us. #MSLeadershipSummit#NTSA#NationalSecurity#TechInnovation#GenerativeAI#TechGrove#CentralFloridaTechGrove#TechEvents#Networking#Innovation#Learning#FebruaryEvents National Center For Simulation (NCS) Florida High Tech Corridor Orlando Tech Community Naval Air Warfare Center Training Systems Division (NAWCTSD) Air Force Agency for Modeling & Simulation (AFAMS) PM TRASYS U.S. Army PEO STRI Synthetic Training Environment CFT Leslie Faircloth Steve South Carol Ann Dykes Logue Erin Goodrich Baker, PMP Space Training and Readiness Command SERDP & ESTCP US Army Modeling and Simulation Office

Yesterday morning, we hosted an incredible event at The Central Florida Tech Grove—the CPAG Defense Forum Breakfast.
