That’s a wrap on CBRNe Convergence Knoxville 2026!
Our team spent the week in Knoxville, TN engaging with the CBRNe community, gaining valuable industry insights, and discussing the evolving needs of chemical and biological protection.
The conversations in Knoxville reflected the importance of collaborative and innovative strategies that are vital to shaping the future of modern defense operations. As a leader in MOF technologies, we are committed to enhancing mission readiness and the warfighter’s safety while advancing domestic manufacturing in defense operations.
Thank you to everyone who connected with us in Knoxville, and we look forward to continuing these conversations!
