The Exchange: Advancing the Legacy of Innovation and National Security

The Exchange is a premier national security and innovation forum focused on advancing the legacy of innovation and national security. In celebration of the nation's 250th anniversary, the 6th Exchange's theme is 'America at 300: Force of the Future', aiming to convene builders, innovators, and leaders to ensure the U.S. remains the world's finest innovation force. The program is designed to bring military commanders, defense technologists, policymakers, and industry leaders into the same conversation about the future of national security, addressing the transformative changes across strategic, technological, and warfare realms. It emphasizes the shift from great power competition to confrontation, and the immediate implications of the age of AI for national security and warfare, including automated wars and the role of algorithms and autonomous systems for advantage.
