Plan ahead and join us for NDIA’s 2024 CBRN Defense Conference and Exhibition taking place June 24 – 26, 2024, at the Baltimore Convention Center in Baltimore, MD. The theme of this year’s conference is Implementing the National BioDefense/Pandemic Preparedness and DoD CWMD Strategies: Inflection Point – We must ACT NOW or Risk/Gamble the Future.
The NDIA CBRN Defense Division promotes the exchange of information — technical and operational — related to defenses against weapons of mass destruction between the Department of Defense and other government agencies, industry, and academia. To do so, the Division addresses various functional areas: defensive measures, chemical weapons demilitarization, treaty compliance, industrial base issues, and domestic preparedness. Come with your questions, suggestions, and innovative ideas, and make time to check out the exhibition hall and poster sessions.
More information about the event will follow, so please continue to visit website for updates.
