Upcoming Events

We are pleased to announce the latest conference in SMi’s portfolio, the Counter UAS Technology USA 2021, taking place 6th – 7th December, Arlington, USA.

As many of our regular speakers are form the US and thanks to their large-scale US military research into Counter UAS, we saw the value in creating a USA focussed event.

With the establishment of the US DoD Joint Counter-Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems Office, (JCO) there is now a drive across the US Armed Forces to have a comprehensive and centralised approach to tackling the ever evolving drone threat facing the nation.

Counter UAS Technology 2021 will showcase the very latest technology in the market to ensure that DoD personnel, equipment and infrastructure are protected from the proliferation of drones.

Speakers will feature from leading US DoD agencies, international defence organizations and leading industry providers.

Key reasons to attend:

• Hear from US DoD Senior Leadership and Program Managers on how they are utilizing technology to combat UAS
• Meet and Network with international speakers from NATO and aligned nations to discover how they are defending their defence networks from drone attacks
• Listen to how innovative technology is driving advancement and enabling defence to counter drone swarms and attacks

From the strategic level down to the tactical, efficient, and clear communications are key to operational success. The fast pace of modern warfare requires agile, highly adaptable forces capable of rapid movement whilst maintaining a consistent communication and situational awareness capability. Interoperability is also becoming increasingly important to ensure seamless command and control within a multinational coalition, especially given the rising operational tempo across Europe.

Moving to London for the first time, the 15th Annual Mobile Deployable Communications Conference will have a renewed focus on the UK MoD’s strategic communications programme and the UK’s tactical communications industry.

As the only international conference which focuses on deployable CIS, Mobile Deployable Communications 2022 will bring together programme managers, key decision-makers, industry experts and thought leaders from Europe and beyond to explore the latest developments in communications technology.

Key highlights: 

• Hear updates and guidance from worldwide CIS program managers and communications experts, including the British Army, US Army, Norwegian Army, Netherlands MoD, the Royal Marines, and more
• Learn about future requirements for equipment and procurement processes, such as the Tactical Edge Networking project and the ESSOR Programme
• Discuss new topics such as battlefield 5G, spectrum management, and cognitive load.
• Meet and network with senior military leaders and industry during dedicated networking sessions across two-days
• Discover the latest communication technology to optimise battlefield C2 in our dedicated exhibition space

The programme will cover: SatCom on the move, software defined radios, ground terminals and network-enabled capabilities, standardising C4ISR networks, building tactical CIS networks and maximising data telemetry resiliency, operational feedback, research and development, and much more.

For 20 years, Defense & Security has been an important biennial as ASEAN’s Leading Tri-Service defence and internal security event, in Bangkok, Thailand. When Defense staged its first Tri-Service for Land, Sea, and Air in Bangkok in 2003 not many countries or international manufacturers paid much attention. The addition of the Internal Security section was added to the profile in 2007 and the event was soon on a path to become one of the region’s most important and dynamic exhibitions and could no longer be ignored.
