Seminars & Events

The BTPI Event Series brings together technology and national security experts from across industry, policy, academia, and the military to discuss, debate, and inform on the latest issues faced by disruptive and emerging technologies. As a reflection of our multidisciplinary environment, BTPI events engage with scholars from across campus, but also experts nationally and internationally, to provide a center of gravity at Cornell for addressing policy-related issues.
