Multi-Domain Integration Industry Day
The Defence Integrated Operating Concept 2025 set out the case for change in defence, and explained the changes to the threats and the challenges faced by the UK.
Multi-Domain Integration is about ensuring that every part of defence can work seamlessly together, and with government departments and Britain’s allies, to ensure it is capable of responding to the threats we face.
The Industry Day will provide industry with information about the aims of MDI, the motivations for change, MDI’s concept and how the Change Programme has been put together.
In the morning, senior speakers from across the Ministry of Defence will outline the ambitions of MDI and how the objectives will be met.
The afternoon will focus on break out discussions with industry. The breakout forums will focus on:
- What needs to change in the MOD and industry to better enable and/or achieve MDI?
- Where can defence better learn from industry and academia in realising MDI in the Information Age?
- Where can defence seek knowledge, experience and innovation to improve for future MDI operations?
Why Attend?
Attendees will gain an improved understanding of the initiatives that form part of the programme and will have the opportunity to help influence change in defence.
Please note that some elements of the day will be streamed online for remote attendance.
To register your interest in attending, please email UKStratCom-MDI-Industry-Day(at)mod.gov.uk detailing your name and organisation.
