Earlier this month, Chris Ashton and Shelley Rees represented SQEP at AFCEA’s flagship event in Brussels, joining defence and cyber professionals from across NATO, the EU, national governments, and industry.
TechNet International 2025 offered more than just a packed agenda. It created a valuable space to listen, exchange ideas, and engage directly with the people shaping the future of #C5ISR.
Thought provoking presentations particularly of note included:
→ An Insightful opening address from Rear Admiral Massimo Esposito, General Manager of AFCEA Europe
→ Opening Keynote: ‘Digital Readiness, Interoperability and Rapid Adoption: How new technologies shape the battlefield’ – Rear Admiral Nick Wheeler, Director of the NATO Digital Staff
→ ‘Technological Sovereignty In an Era of Hybrid Threats: EU Cybersecurity Governance Framework and Path Forward’ – Christiane Kirketerp de Viron, European Commission
→ ‘Emergent Disruptive Technologies Reshaping Joint Operations’ – LTG Andrew Rohling, Dep Chair of the NATO Military Committee
The event also presented an opportunity to engage with many exhibitors including our colleagues from McBride International.
