Why You Should Attend This Summit
The United States currently relies on the Global Positioning Systems (GPS) as its primary source of positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) services, leaving the nation vulnerable to billions of dollars in losses should GPS be disrupted, even for a few minutes. As adversaries continually advance their PNT capabilities, the 2026 Assured PNT Summit will explore how the United States is modernizing GPS and pursuing alternative and complementary sources of PNT to develop a robust, resilient national PNT architecture.
