TechNet Europe, as per annual tradition, is an international event organised by AFCEA Europe, in cooperation with a local chapter, which takes place every autumn, in a European capital city. The conference and exhibition is regularly held under the patronage of the host country's Minister of Defence. The goal of TechNet Europe is to bring together European and US professionals in order to discuss IT-related subjects of relevance to defence, intelligence and security of the European geographical area. Traditional topics include Cybersecurity, C4ISR, 5G, Cloud Technology, Data Analytics, Quantum Computing, Edge Computing, HPC, Zero Trust and many more. TechNet Europe 2022 held in Prague brought together representatives from NATO and EU institutions and agencies, the Czech MoD, and many national governments and industry from 33 countries under the subject of Artificial Intelligence in military operations.

TechNet Europe 2023 will be held on 3 – 4 October 2023 in London and will be again a unique two-day conference and exhibition fostering in-person networking opportunities through our exhibition, during the networking breaks, as well as at the black-tie dinner on 3 October. This event will feature high-level speakers and specialists from the UK and other national governments, national and international defense and security bodies such as NATO, industry, and academia.

The actual, rapidly changing security environment in Europe, the lessons drawn from the current war in Ukraine, and the disruption by technology will definitely provide a substantial background against which military requirements, new solutions and the need for interoperability in the light of Multidomain Operations will have to be reflected.
