AUSA and a Multidomain Future

Earlier this month I trekked down to Washington D.C. to attend the annual Association of the United Systems Army (AUSA) show. There’s certainly been a shift happening in the past couple years to where AUSA has become the stand-out event that nearly every significant technology vendor in COTS Journal’s industry is an exhibitor. That trend reached a point this year whereby it was easier to name which companies where not at the show than to list the many that were there. At the same time, AUSA is one of those rare events where there’s a nice representation of the company’s where COTS Journal’s readers work-the defense primes-exhibiting alongside the embedded computing, power supply and other technology vendors that make up the industry we cover.
