Artificial intelligence is moving from experimentation to everyday application across national security. For GEOINT and All-Source organizations, the focus is now on how to integrate AI into core workflows to improve efficiency, modernize operations, and deliver mission-ready capabilities from the start. 

Join USGIF on Wednesday, July 22, for a Mission Focus discussion on AI-first strategies to modernize national security.

The program will feature government and industry speakers, including Sean Batir, the first Chief Technology Officer of NGA’s Maven program and now Global Head of Mission Innovation at AWS; Brian Bataille, Chief, National Digital Exploitation & OSINT Center (NDOC) Directorate for Science & Technology; Dr. Amanda Fetch, MLAI Working Group Co-Chair, USGIF; Dr. Chris Parrett, Director, Rapid Capabilities Office, NGA; Gina Hurtado, NGA ASPEN Program Manager; and Al Peguero, Senior Program Manager, GEOINT Operations Segment Lead, ECS Federal.

Together, they will explore how intelligence professionals are partnering with industry, rethinking legacy processes, and deploying practical solutions that support faster, more effective analysis.
