From the Desk of AFCEA’s Technology Committee

Calling all technologists and experts: AFCEA International’s Technology Committee is accepting member applications. Deadline is August 11.

The Technology Committee is a volunteer group of technology leaders from industry, academia and government/military focused on exploring emerging technology topics, networking and giving back to the community.

Committee members can participate through projects and events. The committee facilitates networking, outreach and collaboration opportunities between and among government, industry, academia and nonprofit organizations to identify and analyze information technology and management needs in coordination with one another and discuss potential solutions.

Committee objectives are to:

• Enhance AFCEA’s outreach to the technology communities.
• Provide an unbiased collaborative platform to investigate innovative technology solutions to challenges facing global government, academia and industry.
• Provide outreach related to existing, innovative and emerging technology in support of solving enterprise and organizational mission challenges.
• Cultivate partnerships for information exchange amongst government, industry and academia.

The right candidates should embody the mission and contribute by brainstorming, speaking, writing, moderating and/or collaborating on emerging technologies.

Applicants must be directly involved with work and/or knowledge in information technology (IT) technologies, policies, oversight and acquisition processes, operations, systems, applications, products and services and/or research as applied to providing management and IT solutions to government and/or private/nonprofit sector organizations.

Applicants do not need to be an AFCEA member to apply, but if selected, must become an AFCEA member either on an individual basis ($50 per year) or through a corporate or nonprofit organization membership.
