speakers

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has created a sharp evolution, if not a revolution, in modern conflict and wartime strategy. Emerging technologies and innovative strategies such as drone employment, information operations, social media, and battlefield medical treatment have featured prominently and will impact how combatants around the world approach future conflict. How can we expect these lessons to be applied, and how should U.S. national policy address these changes?

In cooperation with USF College of Arts & Sciences, the Institute for Russian, European, and Eurasian Studies and United States Central Command, GNSI Tampa Summit 5 will bring together the country’s boldest scholars, subject matter experts, and policy makers to probe deeply into those questions.
