Thank you for joining us as we celebrated the 11th GVSETS & ABPI. GVSETS & APBI is one of the NDIA Michigan Chapter’s key industry-government-academia events. And we hope your time and experience at the event was productive and enlightening. It was a record year with over 1,200 executives, program managers, engineers, and other key decision-makers together to discuss initiatives, programs, plans, and innovative technologies in the ground domain for both manned and unmanned systems.

We would also like to congratulate the following Technical Session Paper Authors for tying for the “Best Paper Award” this year. Both were exceptional contributions to this year’s event and all should be commended for their work and findings.
