RAF 2009 Air Power Conference
The Shephard Group has been selected to deliver the RAF Air Power Conference in 2009. This global event is an opportunity for air force leaders to gather in London and share their experiences of evolving strategies, capabilities and operations. Industry will be welcomed at the event to demonstrate how effective partnership can deliver beneficial outcomes for the military.
The RAF is a world class and highly respected exponent of air power that operates globally with a variety of partners covering the spectrum of air power activities from high intensity war fighting to humanitarian relief operations. This event will examine the technology, training and thinking required to deliver on current operations and prepare for future ones.
The conference will also seek to place air power in the wider defence environment and the comprehensive government approach. It will examine how to deliver air power within the joint battlespace and consider its wider relevance to governments' security and crisis response capabilities.
Assistant Chief of the Air Staff, Air Vice-Marshal Anderson said, "As an air force that has been engaged directly and continuously on operations across the spectrum of conflict for the last 17 years, the RAF prides itself on its operational delivery and leading role in developing air power concepts and doctrine. RAF APC 09 will provide us with an outstanding forum in which to engage, share and develop thinking and understanding relevant to leaders and opinion formers from across the military, government and industry communities."
Alexander Giles, CEO of The Shephard Group said, "We are honoured to have been selected by the RAF to deliver this prestigious conference. The Shephard Group has a proud history of delivering world class aerospace and defence events and we welcome this opportunity to work with the RAF."
