1400 DELIVERING NATO’S CYBER DEFENCE CAPABILITY IN THE AGE OF DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION b Leading the development and implementation of cyber defense policy across NATOb Challenges for thinking about and articulating future cyber defence technologiesb Working with industry to be creative in capability development

Christian Liflander, Head of Section, Cyber Defence, NATO

1430 MOVING AWAY FROM THE PLATFORM, TOWARDS THE CAPABILITYHow can we improve thinking beyond the constraints of existing technologies, relationships and processes to design a capability requirement that will be more relevant, more effective, more transformative for use across the full spectrum of conflicts in the future, and across multiple domains?b Moving beyond platform-centric modes of thinking (‘more battery power, lighter, smaller’) to capability-focused

frameworks (‘gives the ability to do…. this’) - encouraging new forms of thinking (critical, design, commercial) in requirements design and conceptual capability thinking

1520 AFTERNOON TEA

1600 SPOTLIGHTS: INNOVATORS IN ISR & C2This year we will be bringing together innovators from start ups, SMEs and non-traditional defence companies from across Europe and North America to get some unique insights into the new technologies that could well transform the way that the ISR and C2 communities operate in the future. A S&T Panel will be moderating the sessions, offering their thoughts on how OEMs and government leaders can leverage these systems and software effectively and integrate them into their concept and requirements design processes.

Our Innovators include:

FOCUS DAY TUESDAY 12TH MARCH 20191520 LEGO SERIOUS PLAY WORKSHOP (INVITATION ONLY)

LEGO Serious Play is currently used in corporate and academic institutions throughout the world and is grounded in the theories of constructivism (we learn when our experience and ideas interact) and constructionism (we learn when physically making an object).

LEGO Serious Play works because through this engaging medium attendees are able to:b Perform divergent thinking (embracing creativity and spontaneity);b Generate ideas individually as well as in a group (you can be twice as

productive if you come up with ideas alone);b Spend time playing thereby unlocking their fullest imagination (adults

need to rediscover the lost art of play in order to access innovative solutions);

This unique workshop hosted and led by Andy Priestner, Trainer & Consultant, will bring together senior leaders to urge creative thought processes on the subject of requirements design, future force development and capability concepts.
