MAXIMUS

The Genesis Mission reframes data, computing<, and AI as national infrastructure for science, energy, and security. For DOE, NNSA, and the National Laboratories, the challenge is no longer experimentation, it is operationalization: how to evolve federated, security-constrained research environments into AI-ready, auditable, and continuously governed platforms without disrupting mission science.

The discussion between government and industry moves beyond cloud migration narratives to focus on data-centric security, provenance-by-default pipelines, HPC-AI convergence, and lifecycle governance across classified and unclassified domains.

Learning Objectives:

• Identify architectural patterns for data and AI platforms
• Review governance models that scale across federated laboratories
• Evaluate practical strategies for technical debt extraction, not just modernization
• Examine AI/ML enablement approaches grounded in data provenance and trust
• Delineate security models that enable multi-lab collaboration by design
• Define metrics that measure scientific velocity, reuse, and mission impact

Digital transformation and artificial intelligence (AI) will accelerate energy innovation and enhance security requirements, fundamentally changing how resources are produced, managed, supplied, and consumed.

However, rising electricity demands, the proliferation of advanced data center technologies, grid modernization, a resurgence of nuclear power, cybersecurity threats, geopolitical pressures, and many other factors are drastically shaping the future of energy. At the same time, our critical infrastructure is reaching maximum capacity. Nevertheless, we can tackle these challenges through collaborative dialogue and modern solutions. Together, we will create a more resilient and sustainable energy future.

This year’s Energy, Infrastructure, and Environment (EIE) Summit aims to address these pressing issues by emphasizing the collaborative efforts of U.S. federal agencies in responding to and delivering innovative solutions that modernize, secure, scale, and address energy demands and threats.

Public sector thought leaders will share how federal agencies respond to and deliver innovative solutions that modernize, secure, scale, and solve energy demands and threats.  Topics to be explored will cover:

• Critical Data - Advanced Analytics, Data Governance, & Security
• Emerging Technology - GenAI, Agentic AI, & Modern Infrastructure
• Digital Transformation & Innovation - Digital Twinning, Material Science & Energy Innovation
• Cybersecurity - Emerging Threats, Post Quantum Cryptography & Compliance 
• Operational Technologies - OT Security, IT/OT Convergence & Industrial Control Systems 
• Cross-Agency Collaboration

Join us for EIE 2025 to hear government leaders discuss these and other key priorities and initiatives.

In 2026, federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies will face an unprecedented and ongoing wave of  high-profile events that will test the limits of public safety efforts.

From the FIFA World Cup across 16 North American cities to the year-long America250 Semiquincentennial celebrations and the midterm elections, these events will draw millions of participants and global attention. This situation will create complex security challenges due to geographic spread, long durations, and the ongoing threat of advanced cyber campaigns and lone-wolf attacks. 

This year’s Law Enforcement and Public Safety (LEAPS) Technology Forum will focus on Operational Readiness 2026: Tech Strategies for Large-Scale Security Challenges. The conference provides a vital platform to explore how emerging technologies can significantly improve law enforcement readiness and response to this unique threat environment. Specific, actionable topics will include: 

• Integrated Intelligence Platforms: Enabling true interoperability among fusion centers, joint operation centers, and an international police coordination hub for real-time information sharing across federal, state, and local partners. 

• Counter-UAS (Drone) Technologies: Implementing layered C-UAS mitigation strategies to protect stadiums, parade routes, and critical infrastructure. 

• Cybersecurity Innovations and AI Defense: Protecting election systems and event networks from AI-accelerated attacks and ensuring the integrity of critical law enforcement communications. 

• Advanced Analytics and AI: Utilizing machine learning for real-time behavioral analysis, accurate crowd modeling, and optimizing resource deployment across vast urban zones. 

• Secure Communications and Interoperability: Establishing resilient, multi-band communications infrastructure for seamless command and control during National Special Security Events (NSSEs). 

• Digital Forensics and Disinformation Response: Implementing proactive strategies to fight online radicalization, deepfakes, and uphold election integrity.  

Join us at the 18th annual LEAPS Technology Forum. Attendees will gain actionable insights into leveraging technology for proactive risk management, rapid incident response, and public trust building in an era of evolving threats. With billions of dollars in federal investment now earmarked for security and technology modernization, this is the critical moment to align strategies, share best practices, and establish the united framework that will secure the year ahead and permanently redefine the future of public safety.
