About this event

  • Event lasts 6 hours 30 minutes

In collaboration with the National Center for Simulation, Orange County Government invites you to the 2025 Florida Simulation Summit. Join industry leaders, innovators, and experts for an interactive exploration of how Smart Decisions Build Smart Cities: Optimizing Operations with AI and Simulation.

The Summit highlights how Central Florida’s multibillion-dollar Modeling, Simulation, and Training (MS&T) industry has diversified from defense into transportation, theme parks, and other commercial applications. These “dual-use technologies” help make the Orlando area a Smart Cities leader and a global center for technology innovation. The Summit will feature artificial intelligence (AI), simulation, and other immersive technologies that help companies and cities be smarter, more efficient, and innovative, including:


  • Industry applications for digital twins from experts at Honeywell, IBM, Universal Orlando, and the University of Florida
  • Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) applications presented by the Virtual Reality/Augmented Reality Association (VRARA), featuring experts from TransformXD, Niantic Inc., Nvidia, and Beep
  • Keynote address from Lynn Welch, Growth Strategist with Lucid Reality Labs
  • Interactive demonstrations and exhibits throughout the event, including presentations from the main stage moderated by Innovate Orlando


Military and civilian government employees are able to attend the 2025 Florida Simulation Summit free of charge. To redeem your free ticket, please email FSS@simulationinformation with the subject line "2025 Florida Simulation Summit Ticket."
