NMIO S&T focuses on current and developing technologies representing possible new threats or challenges to the maritime environment or, conversely, offering GMCOI members new opportunities to improve maritime security. This is achieved by working with external S&T stakeholders (government labs, industry, academia, and foreign partners) to identify, develop, and facilitate the use of new and emerging technologies that could potentially mitigate maritime risk.

By bringing intelligence and defense experts together, NMIO helps address the GMCOI’s areas of mutual concern. The result is a better way to leverage a more robust security alliance on behalf of US national security goals.
