Air Missile Defence Technology
17th – 18th November 2021
London, UK
http://www.airmissiledefence.com/satellitetoday
SMi Group is pleased to announce the return of the Air Missile Defence Technology conference, taking place in London on 17th and 18th November 2021.
With militaries constantly facing varied threats, nations are realising critical requirements for systems that can identify and track a wide range of modern threats; from small UAV’s and basic air defence to advanced state-based missile threats. In conjunction with this, increased national and NATO policy towards interoperability and integrated systems mean the importance of allied cooperation is greater than ever, interoperability between systems and national partners being crucial for any future planning and developments.
The need for cooperation among Air Defence programmes has therefore become a common goal for allied forces around the world. With this in mind, and bringing together senior representatives from military, industry and academia, Air Missile Defence Technology 2021 will focus on developing and improving the technology behind AMD programmes to ensure they are well prepared for future mission requirements.
The 2021 conference will provide a unique insight into:
• GBAD
• Countering Medium and Long-range Ballistic Missile Technologies
• C-RAM
• Integrated and Networked Radar Systems
• Confronting ICBM threats
• Developing coherent international strategies
• Advent of Hypersonic Missile Technology
• Cross-forces interoperability across NATO
• SHORAD
• C-UAS and many more

U.S.-African Space Cooperation: Unlocking Innovation Across the Continent
2021-11-16 00:00 | DC
On 16 Nov at 1000 EST, the CompTIA Space Enterprise Council and Space in Africa will co-host “U.S.-African Space Cooperation: Unlocking Innovation Across the Continent” featuring presentations from the Department of State, Egypt, Kenya, South Africa, and Space Enterprise Council member companies: Atlas Space, SAIC, Satellogic, URSA, and Virgin Galactic. In this webinar, we’ll examine current and future challenges and opportunities to US-African space cooperation with a focus on innovation, space technologies, services, and applications. Register at https://connect.comptia.org/events/view/us-african-space-cooperation-unlocking-innovation-across-the-continent
Background:
The United States and Africa have long been active trade partners, but until recently, that relationship only involved limited ties on space cooperation. Now a new generation of Africans is leading the charge to help the continent become an innovative, globally relevant space power. Both challenges and opportunities now exist, that if addressed, will help strengthen the space cooperation ties between the U.S. and Africa.
According to Space in Africa, African space industry revenue is expected to surpass $10.24 billion by 2024 with by 2024, with at least 19 African countries having launched at least one satellite into space. Space technologies continue to be instrumental to Africa’s development, with an increasing number of space application projects being implemented across the continent.
