Leaders, operators and practitioners in government, military, industry, and academia:
Military & Government
Wherever you find yourself within Government, DND, or the profession of arms – in setting policy, strategy or the defence program, driving force development, force generation and readiness, or responsible and living ops in force employment – or across the Defence Team eco-system enabling all of these in Project management, procurement, Materiel, IT, Data, R&D, Talent and HR – this conference is for you to:
- Understand how Industry is enabling allied militaries to gain operational advantage, today
- Better contextualize Industry C4ISR potential in a pan-domain context, beyond your Service and function
- Learn how allies are advancing their technological integration by partnering with Industry in a shared-risk model
- Discover how government, DND, and CAF are striving to set conditions to deliver on digital age capabilities
- Take a day away from the ‘urgent’, to reconnect with the bigger picture
Industry
- Hear directly from leading defence voices in the operational and enterprise spaces
- Connect with an array of innovators, operators, and practitioners who share a common desire to strengthen our national defence and alliance responsibilities – from the tactical edge to the strategic level
- Use the opportunity to refine business relationships and strategies to maximize your outcomes
Research and Academia
- Hear the latest thinking from all three sides: military practitioners (business owners), institutional functional leaders and industry executives and subject matter experts
- Better understand how events in Ukraine, Israel, and around the world are informing contemporary defence thinking, planning, and actions – here and amongst allies
- Leverage the chance to challenge orthodoxies, illuminate barriers to performance, and identify and pursue methods and practices that see these overcome
