The Submarine Technology Symposium is a classified (Secret) three-day conference held at APL’s Kossiakoff Center in Laurel, Maryland. This conference, co-sponsored by Commander, Submarine Forces, and the Naval Submarine League, and hosted by APL, is a premier opportunity to engage in productive technical exchanges between industry, government and academia. The on-site format includes selected displays of new technology developments. Time is allotted for Q&A with speakers and there are breaks between sessions to foster discussion and networking, and to support direct technical interchanges.

The Lunar Surface Innovation Consortium (LSIC) 2025 Spring Meeting will be held May 20-22 at APL in Laurel, Maryland. From NASA updates to another technology “show and tell,” the spring meeting will provide networking opportunities and an understanding of why each sector in the community is needed. The meeting also includes invited speakers, panels, capability area discussions, lightning talks, posters and more.
