Past event: Defence Logistics 2014 Conference

The world’s premier international strategic logistics event

Secure your place at the world’s foremost international Defence Logistics event.

Defence Logistics is back and bigger than ever before. With keynote presentations from 7 Generals from the USA, the UK, Germany, and the EU, this is the most senior event of it's kind in Europe, and features more international participation than any other military logistics event in the world! With a focus on the entire supply chain, key points of discussion include the overwhelming amount of inventory so many nations are struggling with, the challenges of the African continent and the demand for greater contractor support, and the enormous importance of multi-national supply chains in future operations.

Returning to London this February, Defence Logistics 2014 will bring together top level military officers and senior industry partners from around the world to debate the most pressing logistical challenges facing us today. Make sure you're a part of these discussions by securing your place now!
