Given the design challenge "How might emerging technologies, joint, combined and coalition forces contribute to distributed maritime and cross-domain operations?" small teams of junior officers from NPS and the fleet, and early career engineers from Navy labs, academia and industry will propose technologies and employment concepts in scenario based discussions. Teams will brief their conclusions to sponsors, industry executives, and senior officers on the final morning of the workshop, and these results will be disseminated to fleet commands.

This CRUSER sponsored Warfare Innovation Continuum (WIC) workshop will begin with a day of knowledge leveling briefs, followed by two days of facilitated team concept generation work. The workshop will conclude with a morning of final concept briefs to senior leaders.
