## Description

**ANNOUNCEMENT:** The Army’s Program Executive Office C3T and Network Cross-Functional Team will host a network-related technical exchange meeting (TEM) on December 10-11, 2024, at the Savannah Georgia Convention Center. The network is the Army’s number one transformation priority, enabling command and control (C2). TEM 13 will build upon previous TEMs with technical discussion, operational feedback, and strategic government/industry sessions. To support these goals, TEM 13 will provide sessions centered around topic areas including, but not limited to:

Next Generation Command and Control Priority Enterprise Capabilities for a Unified Network Enabling Tactical Effects Supporting Commanders with Predictive Capabilities As an “odd” numbered TEM, TEM 13 will be structured to inform industry’s research and development efforts to align with Army priorities. Potential business opportunities will be discussed throughout the event, and 1-on-1 sessions will be offered through a registration process.

Additionally, starting with TEM 13, the Army will be partnering with the University of Texas System to introduce an Academic Track. The goal of this track is to better connect the basic and applied research being conducted in academia to farther-future topics of interest to the Army. It is also an opportunity to help industrial partners and university researchers make connections for future collaborative efforts.
