Past event: 3rd Annual Qatar Defence Logistics and Support Forum

Logistics Conference to Help the Qatar Armed Forces Select Equipment and Create an Efficient Supply Chain

Join the 3rd Annual Qatar Defence Logistics & Support Forum to meet key decision makers in the field of defence aquisition, logistics and equipment policy.

With Qatar’s assimilation of a greater role in regional politics and military affairs its military spending and defence procurement priorities have grown rapidly to match this role. Qatar’s acquisition of advanced military capabilities and technology requires the development of efficient, effective and ultimately interoperable logistics systems and strategies. The development of joint logistics systems and strategies will enable both Qatar and its allies to manage their acquisitions and ensure their effectiveness when deployed in the field of battle.

As Qatar and its regional allies continue to leverage their increasing economic and military clout they will undoubtedly contribute to military coalitions in future operations. Recent operations such as Operation Unified Protector in Libya convey both their increasing profile in coalitions and in the critical importance of the logistical capability of Qatar and its allies. Continuing to develop integrated processes, strategies and technologies will ultimately ensure responsive, agile and flexible logistical support to the warfighter in future operations.
