GEOINT 2012 SYMPOSIUM

The United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation (USGIF) 9th annual GEOINT Symposium, attracted 4,300 attendees from 27 countries. Despite federal cuts and pending legislation, the symposium had the broadest representation of government ever. Attendees at the event, which took place October 8-11 in Orlando, FL, had an opportunity to explore the latest technologies from a record breaking 264 exhibitors and were able to hear from and meet with key Defense, Intelligence and Homeland Security Community leadership.

Over 100 industry speakers guided the audience through discussions focused on the theme, “Creating the Innovation Advantage.” The theme is indicative of the idea that innovation has always been at the heart of what it means to be American and was captured in the symposium’s extraordinary opening video.

GEOINT 2012 offered a one-day pre-symposium educational event, GEOINT Foreword, which drew 450 attendees. The rest of the symposium also included six keynote speakers, three panel discussions, three lunchtime workshops and six afternoon breakout sessions.
