Teams will be displaying and speaking to their innovations in an expo booth style setting.

In a recent visit to AFWERX-Vegas, Gen Wilson commented, "We've got to innovate to maintain America's security. We've created the AFWERX Fusion Challenge to accelerate inventive ideas from startups, industry, academia and research labs in the most collaborative way and get them to America's Airmen at the speed of relevance."
