MOSA Industry and Government Summit 2027
The MOSA Industry and Government Summit & Expo is TechConnect's flagship gathering for the Modular Open Systems Approach in U.S. defense acquisition. Scheduled October 6–8, 2027 at the Gaylord National Hotel & Convention Center in National Harbor, Maryland, the event brings together government, industry, and technical communities to advance MOSA as a strategic enabler for affordability, adaptability, interoperability, and mission effectiveness across defense systems.
Attendees connect with technical leaders, program managers, acquisition executives, and innovators modernizing systems across the full lifecycle. Programming includes senior keynotes and tri-service briefings from U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force leaders, technical panels on interoperability, digital engineering, modular verification, and implementation lessons, an innovation challenge and exhibitor showcase, and structured networking with decision-makers driving enterprise-wide MOSA success.
Summit priorities highlighted on the official site include making MOSA a core acquisition decision, streamlining acquisition processes, driving competition and multiple supply sources, embedding modularity across programs, enhancing interoperability and resilience, and operationalizing MOSA at scale. The expo co-locates with Defense TechConnect Summit & Expo, SBIR/STTR Innovation Conference, and Smart Cities Connect Conference & Expo.
