PAPERS DUE AUGUST 14: EW Saudi Arabia 2013
With constantly evolving and increasingly rapid advances in Electronic Warfare (EW), a concerted long-term effort is required to keep up to date with opportunities, threats and countermeasures. This new EW conference series for the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will cover the latest topics in EW and its critical role in defense. Developed and tailored specifically for the Kingdom, AOC EW Saudi Arabia 2013 is set to build on the strong foundations laid at the highly successful Nov 2012 AOC EW Malaysia conference and exhibition, which was fully supported by the Royal Malaysian Armed Forces and attended by 200 leading military, government, academic and industrial leaders and thinkers from 20 countries.

PLEASE NOTE: To enable VISA entry processing into the KSA by our logistics partner, Tangent Link, attendees must register by Friday, August 23, 2013.

CALL FOR PAPERS
Each day will begin with a Keynote Speaker to set the stage for the day’s presentations and discussions.
