Border Management North Summit

Border Protection, Security, and Control

June 26-28, 2019

Detroit, MI, United States

Have we been stressing focus on the wrong region?

The international boundary between Canada and the United States runs 5,525 miles long. On one hand, the border is home to some of the most vital economic gateways that account for trillions of dollars in trade and travel - on the other hand, the US border protects the country from the illegal movement of contraband, weapons, drugs even people.

The Border Management North Summit will bring together Heads of Acquisition, Program Managers, Admirals and Commanders from the Department of Homeland Security, the Counter-terrorism Division, Directors of Intelligence from the FBI and DEA and more.

Over the span of 3 days, we will discuss efforts to:

Enhance Border Security operations through better information sharing, improved domain awareness and integrated operations
Facilitate and safeguard lawful trade and travel by enhancing rapid inspection and screening
Enforce a fair trade environment and strengthening border infrastructure
Promote cross-border resiliency by supporting response and recovery capabilities between federal, state, local and tribal Canadian partners.

In order to complete an effective mission of protecting the US, the DHS is continuously working to secure the country's borders and CBP personnel are making it their duty to guard America's front lines by preventing terrorists from entering the homeland.
