· Evolving threats in space – managing policy within an increasingly contested, congested and competitive environment
· Eliminating ‘little enterprise’ stovepipes into big enterprise and crafting a unified vision for space
· Enablers for big enterprise, utilising the software-defined environment and common standards for networked systems
· Future services and technologies that will be required from industry to deliver the US space vision – the task for ‘disruptive tech’ firms
Presented by: Dr Brian Teeple, Deputy Chief Information Officer, CIO (C4IIC), US DoD
2) Next Generation SATCOM Way Ahead
· An overview of current and future USAF MILSATCOM constellations
· Different approaches for increasing Partnerships (Allied and Commercial) in SATCOM from 2028 and beyond

3) SatCom In Support of Expeditionary Warfare
· The functional lines of effort for USMC Europe and Africa and how it feeds into theatre campaign plans
· Current SATCOM assets across the spectrum – utilising X-band and Ku band systems for operations
· Unique theatre challenges for the USMC in Europe considering the impact of terrain, temperature, wind speeds and storms for communication
· The role of SATCOM in expeditionary campaigns, the increased importance of C2 and space-enabled situational awareness
