Why it matters
The conference is a niche academic and doctrinal venue rather than a commercial marketplace, giving SMEs and startups a channel to engage the Polish land-forces academy and partner universities on decision-support, dual-use, cyber and critical-infrastructure research topics.
- Its explicit focus on dual-use technologies and hybrid-threat decision-making aligns with priorities relevant to defence suppliers seeking academic partners or research validation.
- Value is primarily in networking, publication and early-stage research collaboration, not procurement.
About
A one-day international academic conference held both on-site and online, dedicated to decision-making under conditions of uncertainty and risk.
- Sessions cover threats linked to the war in Ukraine, hostile hybrid activities, risk management, critical infrastructure protection, information security, dual-use technologies, and cyber/electronic-warfare aspects of security.
- It is aimed at scholars and experts in management, command and leadership, with selected papers recommended for publication in ministry-listed scientific journals.
- The event is co-organized with Warsaw University of Technology, Wrocław University of Science and Technology, and the University of Wrocław.
