An opportunity for North Carolina’s small businesses, academic institutions, and innovators is on the horizon.
From June 6-10, the USSOCOM Technical Experimentation event 22-3 will be held at the Emerging Technology Institute in Red Springs, North Carolina. The themes for the event are “Soldier Systems” and “Standoff Through-Wall Imaging.”
The event evaluates innovative technologies that can offer Special Operation Forces increased capabilities in the areas of protection, location and tracking, visual augmentation devices, advanced power solutions, and more.
“ETI is excited to have another opportunity to support SOCOM again but more importantly this event gives North Carolina small businesses and academic institutions an opportunity to be face to face with Program Managers and PEO offices that fund and develop new technologies that support Special Operations,” stated James Freeman, founder and president of ETI. “Everyone dreams about being able to demonstrate to SOCOM and this event is the Super Bowl technology demonstration. This only happens four times a year and it has been a long time since a SOCOM T&E has taken place near Fort Bragg.”
The deadline for submission is March 18 at noon DST. After reviewing the technical experimentation nomination submissions, the government will invite select candidates to demonstrate their technologies at the USSOCOM event.
If experiments radiate a given frequency or frequency band, it must have prior approval to transmit on that frequency.
These nominations shall be submitted electronically by creating a Scout Card at https: vulcan-sof.com by the deadline. A complete submission consists of:
