In an era of hyper-information where early warning systems are constantly collecting data from the battlefield and high-speed communication networks are bringing this data to commanders without delay, to leverage them to better direct, coordinate, and control forces in the execution of missions is still a challenge. Find our how AI powered data analytics, AI agents and co-pilot applications are providing a real time unique source of truth through data fusion, bridging siloes and allowing commanders to take informed decisions with an unprecedented level of awareness.

Attend and Learn:

• The role played by AI and data analytics in making data available at the speed of battlefield, also to non data specialists
• How knowledge graph technology can bridge siloes though open protocols and pull together data from multiple sources, formats and domains to provide rapid insights in a cybersecure way
• How an AI based system can help detect and interpret weak signals and prevent physical or cyber attacks

In this panel session, our experts will discuss the importance of electromagnetic spectrum dominance in modern warfare, and the challenges around developing and deploying at speed and at a scale robust and resilient communication and early warning systems. We will also explore how AI and data analytics is strongly impacting how we re-think initiatives such as electronic warfare and Joint All-Domain Command and Control (JADC2), from digital engineering applied to RD&T, up to real time data fusion for decision making. Join us and learn how to stay ahead of the curve, increase new technologies’ insertion speed, keep strategic advantages in an electromagnetic and cyber heavily contested space.
