JUST ANNOUNCED: 4th Annual AOC Pacific Conference, October 20-22
This year's unclassified event, in association with USPACOM, will cover the role of electronic warfare (EW), cyber electromagnetic activities, spectrum and information operations, and information operations and other IRC and AOC mission areas, with specific operational and conceptual focus on the emergent threats posed by hybrid warfare and the opportunities raised by the visionary U.S. Third Offset Strategy initiative. As in previous Pacific events, the symposium will include global partners and allies from around the Pacific region, who will present their unique perspectives. The symposium continues October 22 with a classified working group at the SECRET REL FVEY at HQs U.S. Pacific Command on Camp H.M. Smith. The agenda and instructions for attendance for the classified working group will be coordinated through official military channels with PACOM J39.

The purpose of the symposium is to bring together government, military, industry, academia, small business and other stakeholders for discussions on the operational challenges facing the practitioners of these information-related capabilities and to explore possible technological and tactics/procedural solutions. To stimulate wider interest and inquiry into these issues, the symposium and related activities and events will be open for registration by government, industry and academia representatives without regard to their AOC membership status (both AOC members and non-members may register) except that access of foreign individuals and any other persons may be restricted as necessary in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
