This informative event will draw from expert opinions, showcase the latest technology and inform attendees of new platforms and how to use them to an advantage from a military and defence perspective. “I am returning to this year’s Social Media in Defence not just to speak but to learn what best practices are out there and to ensure we stay at the top of our game.
