The GNSI Tampa Summit has been established by the Global and National Security Institute as a platform for bringing together scholars, researchers, and practitioners with policymakers to ensure that decision-makers can access the most current and complete knowledge possible.

The Great Power Competition Conference is the marquee event in the Summit, presented in partnership with the USF College of Arts and Sciences and U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM). The GPC is one of the nation's premier ongoing conferences focused on the Great Power Competition. The GPC Conference series has welcomed such prestigious speakers as General David Petreaus, Senator Marco Rubio, Michéle Flournoy, Michael Chertoff, General Richard Clarke and Senator Joseph Lieberman, among many others.

The GNSI Tampa Summit will incorporate multiple events, across various disciplines, to provide a conduit to diverse perspectives on the most pressing issues and challenges facing the United States at the tactical, strategic, and policy levels to ensure that U.S. national security remains effective against emerging threats.
