RUSI Defence Information Superiority (DIS) conference

8-9 June 2011 – Banqueting House, Royal Palace of Whitehall, and RUSI, London

Following the publication of the Strategic Defence and Security Review (SDSR) in October 2010, the Defence Information Superiority (DIS) conference considered "Information Superiority in an Age of Uncertainty".

With the ongoing uncertain security environment, and opinion, news and information being available globally in near real time, information superiority remains essential at the strategic, operational and tactical level to the success of military operations and the political decision-making process underpinning them. Additionally, tough financial constraints demand that the MOD makes the most of existing information systems through application of best practice from allies, other government departments and industry while strategic partnerships with will be essential to maintaining the MoD's information advantage.

In conjunction with the MOD, this event brought together a senior panel of speakers from MOD, industry and allies to address emerging trends and the means to improve the MOD's information management and exploitation.

For the second consecutive year, VEGA sponsored the event, including the speakers’ dinner.
