Susan Barborek, SOAR’s CEO/President, along with Neal Smith and Alyssa Cowden attended the 2017 GEOINT Symposium held in San Antonio, Texas. The United States Geospatial Intelligence Foundation hosts the GEOINT Symposium each year to bring the geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) community together to discuss intelligence and business issues affecting the community and provide possible solutions to solve them. The GEOINT Symposium agenda consisted of a packed schedule of keynote speakers and panels from the intelligence community and our Department of Defense and international partners. Companies pitched their products, applications, and services in an enormous hall that can only be described by Susan as, “WOW!” Susan, Neal, and Alyssa succeeded in accomplishing their symposium goals of increased understanding of the intelligence and business issues that the community is facing, formed new relationships with potential partners, and solidified our existing partnerships; oh and they had a little fun too visiting the Alamo and experiencing the Riverwalk. We cannot wait to attend next year’s GEOINT Symposium in Tampa Bay, FL next April.
