The Department of Commerce, specifically the Bureau of Industry and Security, has issued a Request for Innovative Participation (RFIP) for NATO's Innovation Challenge 2024/Fall, focusing on developing resilient adaptive networks for communication and control systems. This initiative seeks collaborative solutions from industry and academia to enhance NATO's capabilities in areas such as dynamic network topologies, cybersecurity, and Internet of Things (IoT) scalability, addressing the complexities of modern military operations and evolving cyber threats. The RFIP is exploratory and non-binding, with no obligation for NATO to procure any submitted solutions; however, monetary awards of $5,000, $2,500, and $1,000 will be granted to the top three submissions. Interested participants must submit their proposals by November 5, 2024, with finalists presenting their concepts on November 20, 2024.
