EXHIBITION
“SPIE has had a particular focus at times on applications and uses
of photonics that I think has spurred a lot of great thought on
how problems can be solved using photonics. Not just advancing
the state of the art, but actually looking at the applications
has been a great contribution that SPIE has made.”
David Honey
Office of the Director of National Intelligence

Alan R. Shaffer
Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary
of Defense Research and Engineering
Department of Defense
Mr. Shaffer is currently serving as the Acting Assistant Secretary of Defense Research and Engineering.
He also serves as the Principal Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense Research and Engineering, a
position he has held since 2007. In this position, Mr. Shaffer is responsible for formulating, planning, and
reviewing the DoD Research, Development, Test, and Evaluation (RDT&E) programs, plans, strategy,
priorities, and execution of the DoD RDT&E budget that totals roughly $25 billion per year. He has
also serviced twice as the Acting Director of Defense Research and Engineering, currently titled the
Assistant Secretary of Defense (Research and Engineering), first from 2007 to 2009 and then again
from 2012 to 2013. Additionally, in 2009, he was appointed as the first Director, Operational Energy,
Plans and Programs (Acting). Mr. Shaffer has also served as the Executive Director for several senior
DoD Task Forces. In 2005 he served as the Executive Director for the Technical Joint Cross Service
Group that reviewed the 300 DoD research, acquisition and test activities during the Base Realignment
and Closure activity. In 2007, he was the Executive Director for the DoD Energy Security Task Force,
which led to the establishment of a congressionally confirmed position to focus on DoD operational
energy use. Most recently, he served as the Executive Director of the Mine Resistant Ambush Protection
(MRAP) Task Force, which he was responsible for fielding 27,000 MRAPs.
Prior to entering the federal government, Mr. Shaffer served a 24-year United States Air Force career
with assignments in weather, intelligence, acquisition oversight, and programming. His career included
deployment to Honduras in the mid-1980s and direct support of the United States Army 3rd Armored
Division in Hanau, Germany. During Operation DESERT STORM, he was responsible for deployment of
the 500-person theater weather force. Other assignments include Wing Weather Officer supporting
the 320th Bombardment Wing at Mather AFB, California; Intelligence Officer at Foreign Technology
Division, Wright Patterson AFB, OH; Deputy Director of Weather for Air Combat Command, Langley
AFB, VA; numerous staff and command assignments in the Air Staff and Office of the Secretary of
Defense, in the Pentagon; and finally, the Air Force Weather Agency, Offutt AFB, Nebraska. Upon
retirement from the United States Air Force in 2000, Mr. Shaffer was appointed to the Senior Executive
Service; in 2001, he assumed the position as Director, Plans and Programs, Defense Research and
Engineering.

at this year’s exhibit, and provides attendees with an
advance glimpse of “what’s new” in thermal imaging
applications. All exhibitors are eligible to present.
Panelists from U.S. government laboratories, venture capital community, and industry discuss ways
to speed the commercialization and deployment of
early-stage Defense and Homeland Security applications focused on mid-infrared technologies. Listen
and interact with the leaders in the IR community,
and come to share your ideas.

Keynote Presentation: Stephen G. Anderson,
Industry and Market Strategist SPIE
Measuring the size of an industry is difficult for many
reasons. What categories and suppliers are included? What data are available? Stephen G. Anderson,
Industry and Market Strategist, will provide an update on efforts at SPIE to profile the global photonics industry including the applications of photonics
in the security and defense sector.
5:00 to 7:00 pm · Location: Industry Event Room,
Exhibit Hall D
Moderator: Jennifer Douris, Lobbyist for SPIE
Join us for a discussion on upcoming changes to the
US Munitions List (USML) that will impact ITAR regulations for both industry and research universities.
The rewrite of Category XII of the U.S Munitions List
(USML) is part of the overall effort undertaken by the
Administration's Export Control Reform (ECR) initiative. The USML contains the items controlled under
the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR).
Category XII covers much of the optic and photonic commodities and components controlled under
ITAR. Most of the other categories have already been
addressed, but they have saved Category XII for last
due to its complexity and importance to both industry and the military. We expect the proposed rule for
this category to be published prior to this meeting,
come hear what changes are being made and how
you can influence the rule before it is finalized.

Groundbreaking advances in basic and applied research of relevance to the DoD are increasingly dependent on work undertaken by industry and academia
as well as at government labs. As such, collaborative
development efforts will become an essential element
of successful innovation. This panel brings together
experts from government labs and the pharmaceutical industry to identify areas of mutual interest and
explore the potential opportunities and challenges of
strategic partnering. Routes to a successful collaboration will be discussed with a focus on such issues as
funding, intellectual property, project management,
and security, as well as access to technology that has
already been developed. Though specifically focused
on the pharmaceutical industry the discussion will be
applicable across many industries.
