Global forces continue to be challenged by erratic budgets and expanding threats. Services continue to engage a wide range of threats that span from disaster assistance to nation state aggression and on to rogue nation antagonism. Nations continue to deal with the effects of mass migration from the Middle East and cyber-attacks on all of our systems. Our Senior Officer panel will be asked to address current and future environments while they discuss this year’s conference theme - “Harnessing New Technology To Win in a Complex World”. This year’s panel will include senior representatives from all the U.S. Military Services and NATO. Following opening remarks, the audience will be able to interact with the panel through written questions. Don’t miss the opportunity to hear from national leaders on the way ahead.
