On 08-09 May, SOFWERX, in collaboration with United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), Joint Program Executive Office for Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Defense (JPEO CBRND), and the U.S. Army Combat Capabilities Development Command Chemical Biological Center, will host a Countering Weapons of Mass Destruction (CWMD) Capability Assessment Event (CAE) to identify CWMD technologies relevant to the specific problem statements below. The collaborative CWMD DoD group intends to align transition pathways across the full technology spectrum, regardless of maturity.
