THE ONLY FORUM DEDICATED TO IMPROVING INFRASTRUCTURE AS A CENTRAL COMPONeNT of MILITARY CAPABILITY

11 - 12 December, 2024  | Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UK

OPTIMISING THE DEFENCE ESTATE OF THE FUTURE 

Today's unstable geopolitical landscape demands a flexible and responsive military fleet. The Defence Estate is the core of this military capability. The estate must evolve and modernise, bolstering resilience against today’s increased uncertainty and evolving threats. 

Through extensive collaboration, we can curate a Defence Estate which provides a sustainable and affordable set of land, buildings and accommodation that supports defence capability, both in terms of military operations and the lived experience of its personnel.

The Defence Estates and Infrastructure forum serves as an excellent platform for the exchange of knowledge, collaboration, and the exploration of groundbreaking developments in this field. This two-day event will bring together leading innovators and industry professionals, to discuss strategic and operational policy level challenges. During the forum, participants will engage in insightful keynote presentations, thought-provoking panel discussions and engaging networking opportunities.

Join us to gain global insights into balancing affordability, deliverability, efficiency, to support and advance the future of the Defence Estate.
