Past event: Maritime ISR Conference 2025

Expanding The Frontiers Of Maritime Intelligence And Security

Join us at Maritime ISR (28-29 October 2025, Copthorne Tara Hotel, London, UK) for a transformative conference dedicated to advancing maritime intelligence and security. We will delve how innovation is enhancing maritime security and operational efficiency whilst also examining the critical role of ocean connectivity in improving maritime situational awareness, focusing on how integrating sea, air, and space technologies can transform surveillance and security operations. This conference promises to expand understanding and equip attendees with the knowledge to navigate the future of maritime intelligence and security.

What's New For 2025?

• A Collaborative Conversation: Bringing together experts from Navies, Governments, Commercial Agencies and Operatives, and industry to share common operating challenges in situational awareness.
• Demonstrations And Showcases: An exciting new addition to the networking zone will be some demonstrations from our event partners, walking us through the use cases of the technology and the solutions it provides.
• Expert Panels: Participate in dynamic discussions let by top ISR experts focusing on real-world applications and future trends, Connect, collaborate and share insights with peers from across the maritime ecosystem.
• Deep-Dive Into Technical Topics Such As Data, OSINT And AIS: Data is such a crucial component for maritime operations and the correct utilisation of OSINT and AIS can encourage fundamental success.

Benefits Of Attending

• Explore The Different Layers From Seabed To Space: The 2-day agenda will enable you to uncover the challenges which maritime operators face from underwater, the surface and the skies. With focused sessions on aerial and underwater technologies we are ensuring a comprehensive overview and wider perspective on the areas we would like to advance as nations and allies.

• Specific Challenge Focus: Data Accessibility And Reliability: After an in-depth research phase of building this agenda, we have realised that on all layers of maritime operation that there is increasing concern over the accessibility and reliability of data. The dedicated sessions to unpack this concern are led by the UKs Hydrographic Office and the collaborative, London Tech-Bridge.

• Unveil Strategic Insights From Industry Leaders: For 2025, the agenda will kick-start with a strategic analysis on maritime operations, defence and security from the new NATO ISR Force Commander. This session will unfold some of the geopolitical tensions, trends in ISR technologies and an insight into NATOs initiatives to improve ISR interoperability.

• Unmatched Networking Opportunities: Network with colleagues and counterparts, civilian experts and industry professionals from across the maritime operational area. You will also be able to meet with solution providers, requirement setters and ISR leaders from across the globe to explore the cutting edge-technologies designed to support us in operational success.
