We are pleased to announce a strategic partnership with the London Defence Conference to bring LDC’s success to the nation’s capital with the inaugural Washington Forum.
Held on 7 October, the Washington Forum brings together policymakers, industry, academia and selected media. It is by invitation only. The theme for our first edition is "Global Competition: Security from the Seabed to Space."
