Cyberspace Symposium 2009 - Air Force Cyber space Symposium

June 16 ¨C 18, 2009

Shreveport Convention Center



WELCOME to the home of the 2009 AFCS! The Cyber Innovation Center is putting the final touches on this year's agenda which promises to be insightful, informative and inspiring. The 2009 AFCS will focus on "Collaboration In Cyberspace" by bringing together the entire cyber community. While this year's symposium has an AF and DoD focus, the agenda has been expanded to also explore how other governmental agencies (DHS, NSA, CIA, FBI, etc.) operate and approach cyber. By fostering "real" collaboration, attendees will gain a better understanding of the interdependencies created by cyber across government, industry and academia.

In order to foster collaboration, the 2009 AFCS will provide attendees with numerous networking opportunities. For example, evening socials and regularly scheduled breaks will offer attendees the opportunity to ¡°connect¡± with leaders of the cyber community; while a diverse group of keynote presenters will provide unique perspectives and insight into the future of cyberspace. The Vendor Exhibit Hall will offer an opportunity to meet the companies that lead the way in cyber research and technology development.

This year¡¯s symposium is a ¡°must-attend¡± event and promises to be a huge success. The inaugural AFCS was hosted in Bossier City ¨C Shreveport in Nov. 2007. Over 2,000 people and 100 exhibitors attended this inaugural event. We expect attendance to be even greater at this year¡¯s show!
