Advanced Manufacturing and Factory Automation Event Calendar

The Biomanufacturing for Defense and Security Summit will bring together senior thought leaders and stakeholders from across DoW, Military Research Labs, Federal Government, Commercial Industry, & Academia to discuss how each are advancing biomanufacturing to enhance national security objectives, produce critical materials for defense applications, and strengthen the overall U.S. bioindustrial manufacturing base. Biomanufacturing is crucial for U.S. national security because it enables domestic production of critical materials, medicines, and defense supplies, reducing reliance on foreign adversaries, which in turn creates resilient supply chains for the military and economy.

The 11th Annual Military Additive Manufacturing Summit & Technology Showcase continues to be the premier event in North America for leaders across military, aerospace, and defense 3D printing. This educational and professional development event helps drive active dialogue surrounding the integration of 3D printing technologies across the Joint Force. MILAM 2027 sits at the intersection of industrial policy and national defense, directly answering the National Security Strategy’s call to supercharge the Defense Industrial Base. Your participation helps shape how the U.S. accelerates the adoption of advanced manufacturing capabilities and translates that progress into real Warfighter lethality, readiness, and resilience.
