Engaging with MOD Innovation & Funding - with a focus on improving "cognitive capabilities" in decision making, simulation, deception and influence.

Hosted by: Defence and Security Oxford Brookes University (DASOBU), Headington Campus, Oxford - Clerici Building Learning Studio (Please ask for directions to the Clerici main entrance & follow signs to the learning centre).

This in-person conference will help attendees to better understand the MOD procurement processes, as well as other sources of funding and support available for innovation across a wide range of technology fields within Defence and Security. SMEs can also gain insights and advice to assist them in entering the Defence and Security supply chain.

One specific field to be addressed is the use of digital technology to enhance Command Capability, in what is known as the "cognitive domain". This involves both improving our capability and degrading that of potential aggressors.

DASOBU, the event hosts, are a leading research organisation in shaping the future human dimension of defence and security capability.

Speakers will cover the following topics:

how the MOD promotes and funds innovation and research;
science and technology priorities and funding options across Defence;
emerging requirements in information warfare and influence operations; and
technologies that support improved decision making, deception and simulation.

Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn, network, and be inspired.
