(commonly known as the ``Federal Advisory Committee Act'' or ``FACA'')
and 41 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 102-3.140 and 102-3.150.
Due to circumstances beyond the control of the DFO and the DoD, the
DIB was unable to provide public notification required by 41 CFR 102-
3.150(a) concerning its April 17, 2024 meeting. Accordingly, the
Advisory Committee Management Officer for the DoD, pursuant to 41 CFR

Purpose of Meeting: The mission of the DIB is to provide the
Secretary of Defense, the Deputy Secretary of Defense, and the USD(R&E)
independent advice and strategic insights on emerging and disruptive
technologies and their impact on national security, adoption of
commercial sector innovation best practices, and ways to leverage the
U.S. innovation ecosystem to align structures, processes, and human
capital practices to accelerate and scale innovation adoption, foster a
culture of innovation and an experimentation mindset, and enable the
DoD to build enduring advantages. The DIB focuses on innovation-related
issues and topics raised by the Secretary of Defense, the Deputy
Secretary of Defense, or the USD(R&E). The objective of this DIB
meeting is to provide the public with an update on the current studies
as well as obtain, review, and evaluate information related to the
DIB's mission and studies.
Agenda: The DIB's open meeting will take place on April 17, 2024,
from 12:30 p.m. to 2:00 p.m. The DIB DFO, Dr. Marina Theodotou, will
open the meeting and introduce the DIB Chair,
[[Page 23004]]
