FUTURE COMMAND AND CONTROL CONFERENCE 2024
/Future Warfighting Concepts; Command & Control in a New Era/
Dear colleagues,
we would like to introduce the Future Command and Control (C2) Conference 2024 and welcome you to this event.
In recent years, the term "multi-domain integration" has been increasingly used in discussions about armed forces and their capabilities. In this context, questions relating to command and control (C2), including synchronisation with non-military actors, have come to the fore. There is a certain ambiguity in the responses, which only serves to highlight the often unrecognised importance of C2 to current and future concepts of warfare and crisis management, and its success in the new era.
This importance was underlined by SACEUR, who said that "... C2 is one of the most urgent challenges within the Alliance...". This is primarily due to the exponential growth in the amount of data available, the speed of information transfer, the exponential increase in the quality of technologies such as artificial intelligence, quantum computing, unmanned vehicles and others, the digitisation of the environment and the overal complexity of multi-domain operations.
This trend is confirmed by the experiences of recent and ongoing conflicts, which need to be analysed, considered in contex and the conclusions put into practice as soon as possible. This is not just about the military environment; the consistent interplay between political, military and civilian capabilities is becoming increasingly important. Co-operation between military commanders and non-military partners is often a critical success factor in resolving a crisis or conflict.
The aim is to provide new, comprehensive perspectives, possible solutions and lessons learned in this area and to facilitate a broad discussion among participants.
The Future C2 conference will build on the content of the main FFF 2024 conference (16 October 2024).
Jiří BALOUN, LtGen (ret.)
Former Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Afghanistan
