On February 13-14, 2024, IFT  received an invitation to participate in the VERTEX | Contested Logistics event held at Capital Factory in Austin. Organized by the Army Application Lab, the primary intent of VERTEX is to capture market intelligence that can be used to inform everything from concepts to requirements for the Army’s technical problems. IFT had the valuable opportunity to attend this event, contributing insights and engaging in discussions at the intersection of technology and logistics.
