New Technologies Event 2018 (NTE 18)

HQ SACT is issuing this Request for Information (RFI) announcement in order to facilitate collaboration between NATO's Joint Analysis and Lessons Learned Centre (JALLC), Lisbon, Portugal, and industry/academia regarding solutions1 based on new technologies that can support the improvement of the NATO Lessons Learned Process (details available at https://nllp.jallc.nato.int/Pages/nte2018.aspx).

The purpose of this RFI is to request representatives from both industry and academia to present and demonstrate solutions (either existing and/or under development) based on new technologies at an event to be held in Lisbon area, Portugal in October 2018 (see below). In particular such solutions should address challenges relating to data collection, management, analysis, and information sharing of large amounts of structured and unstructured data in an operational environment and/or headquarters. Such presentations and demonstrations will be given to an audience of NATO and National representatives from the Lessons Learned Community. The nature of this event will be discovery only and will not be intended to solicit contracts. However, relevant solutions could potentially support development of future concepts, doctrine, STANAGs, user requirements, capability development, etc.

This Event (hereinafter referred to as NTE 18) is further described in Section III. It will take place between 02 - 04 October 2018 in Lisbon area (Portugal).
