Konan Technology to Hold November “Defense AI Summit,” Unveil Information Analysis Platform “ARGOS”

Konan Technology is scheduled to hold the 5th Konan Technology Defense AI Summit on November 13 at Nine Tree by Parnas in Yongsan, Seoul. The event, hosted by Konan Technology, will take place under the theme, "Opening a Global Future Security Paradigm with ARGOS."

At the summit, Konan Technology plans to present the future direction of defense AI technology. The focus areas are defense intelligence analysis and on-device AI.

At the event, the multi-source information analysis platform "Konan ARGOS (Konan ARGOS)" is set to be unveiled for the first time. "Konan ARGOS (Konan ARGOS)" is a platform equipped with capabilities that connect information from multiple sources and use AI to analyze relationships and context between pieces of information to support the decision-making of intelligence analysts.

Konan Technology envisions developing ARGOS into a defense AI platform that integrates multi-source information collection, fusion, analysis, and decision-making support. The implementation focus is on a structure in which AI supports analytical tasks and analysts concentrate on judgment and decision-making.

At last year's "Defense AI Tech Summit 2025," AI platforms, agentic AI, and physical AI were presented as the three main pillars of defense AI strategy. This year, the discussion will be refined into information analysis platforms and defense on-device AI technologies, with a focus on application in real defense environments.

The event will consist of a public morning session and a closed expert session in the afternoon. The opening remarks will be delivered by Kim Young-seom, CEO of Konan Technology, and the presentations will begin with Chief Operating Officer (COO) Yang Seung-hyun. The keynote speech will be given by the Defense and Security Division of the National AI Strategy Committee.

SK Telecom (SKT), Korea Aerospace Industries (KAI), Reflex, Ninano Company, and Myongji University will then give presentations on defense AI full stack, manned-unmanned teaming, swarm drones, counter-drone systems, and space edge AI. The morning session will also introduce ARGOS's key features and the direction of ARGOS as a defense AI platform.

The afternoon expert session will be led by Konan Technology. In this session, the company will present ways to advance defense analysis operations based on the "rapid commercialization support for AI application products for the Ministry of National Defense" project that Konan Technology won in September and the related task of "automatic collection and analysis of open-source intelligence (OSINT)".

Konan Technology also plans to hold a closed demonstration of ARGOS. The purpose of the closed demonstration is to explain how it can be used in practice.

The morning session will feature the AI simultaneous interpretation solution "Lingo-X (Lingo-X)." "Lingo-X (Lingo-X)" supports interpretation in major foreign languages, and the morning session will demonstrate the potential for using AI simultaneous interpretation in defense environments.

Yang Seung-hyun, COO of Konan Technology, said he hopes to confirm new directions and possibilities for defense AI with defense customers based on his 20 years of field experience in the defense sector. Konan Technology has more than 100 project execution records in defense informatization and AI, and it is recently pursuing "Agent-X," which integrates major AI agents and Agent OS. In addition, in the defense sector, the company is also pursuing the development of a solution in the form of an "AI aide" for intelligence analysts.
