Whilst individual speakers will not be confirmed until after the Federal election – this year’s conference will centre around two themes:
- Demonstrating the increased SME capabilities: Following the successful roll out of the Defence Ready Seminar Series in 2021, the region is now home to an increased number of SMEs preparing for, entering into, or expanding their capabilities in the Defence market. The conference will providing an excellent opportunity for these organisations to attend, network and potentially take part in speaking opportunities to discuss their experiences – and importantly their capabilities – directly with Defence Primes and other key players
- Defence plans and projects: Defence capability managers representing all of the major defence projects and contracts will be in attendance at this year’s conference. This provides a ‘one-stop-shop’ for delegates to hear the most up-to-date information across all of the available projects, as well as new and upcoming opportunities coming to the region.
