Building on the positive feedback and success of our previous meeting in Oslo, the second instalment of
SETAF shall seek to bring together soldier modernisation program managers, technical leaders from industry, leading researchers and end users, to proactively advance and develop optimum approaches to dismounted soldier capability.
With its unique and interactive format, we maintain our original belief in “No Attendees only participants”, with the entirety of our attendees playing an active role in the development of ideas. Unlike other events,
SETAF is designed around a combination of panel discussions and focused discussion groups, run by co-chairs who are experts in their respective subject matter. With no PowerPoint presentations or keynotes,
SETAF will dedicate the precious time of participants to networking and interactive discussions, making it a complementary part of the soldier modernisation communities’ annual training and development programme.
Drawing on a wealth of experience and technical expertise, SETAF shall cover the key areas that directly influence the operational effectiveness of the dismounted soldier
- Power
- Communications
- Lethality
- Survivability
- Mobility
- Human Factors
Benefits of Attending
- The only discussion based forum for the soldier community helping advance dismounted capabilities through knowledge exchange and debate, not Power Point presentations or lengthy key note speeches
- “No attendees, only participants” all attendees have the potential to directly influence and learn from discussions, this a hands on training tool for the community
- Military Experts confirmed from the UK, United States, Germany, Sweden, Netherlands and Portugal
- The only event that invites technical project managers, scientists and lead engineers from major industry programmes to join and help steer the debate
