Chapter Hosts a Gathering of Three UK Chapter Presidents

In October 2024, the chapter hosted Steve Thornber, strategic consultant and air commodore, Royal Air Force Reserve in UK Strategic Command.

Thornber discussed the need for an urgent revolution across the UK defense's digital enterprise. In a changing world of shifting global geopolitics and the availability of industry's emerging capabilities, defense must take a digital enterprise approach that is versatile and can be developed at pace.

It was also an opportunity for all three chapter presidents of the UK AFCEA active chapters to come together to discuss further AFCEA collaboration. Nigel Harrison, AFCEA South, took the opportunity to present a check for £1,000 to the AFCEA Academic Trust set up to advance education in defense communications, electronics and information technology through the promotion of academic excellence.
