APL - National Security Agency (NSA) Tech Partnering Event 2007 with Maryland Technology Development Corporation (TEDCO)

On October 31, 2007, the Tech Council of Maryland (TCM) and the Howard County Economic Development Authority (HCEDA) joined forces to host a dynamic event featuring APL and NSA Information and Communications Technologies available for commercialization.

NSA is the world expert on cryptology and electronic communications systems. Researchers work across interdisciplinary worlds involving knowledge discovery, advanced mathematics, quantum computing, nanotechnology, networking technologies, linguistics, communications, information processing and computer systems security.

APL technologies complemented those from the NSA. This event marked more than 30 showcases organized by TEDCO, beginning with the first event held in 2000 at APL. This was the third time that APL has highlighted its technologies in TEDCO’s program, the previous event taking place in 2003. TEDCO has developed many nationally recognized programs—including showcase events—that facilitate the technology development, transfer and commercialization process. The TCM, a trade association that helps the region’s technology organizations grow, lent its networking expertise to draw more than 250 attendees. The HCEDA sponsored a networking reception at the conclusion of the showcase
