Since the inaugural event in 2020, the Defence Connect Budget Summit has brought together key policymakers, decision makers and defence industry professionals to assess the impact of the federal budget on Australia’s defence and national security.
This year we will do the same, and you’re invited to take part!
A year on from the launch of the government’s release of the Defence Strategic Review and following the recent release of the Independent Analysis into Navy's Surface Combatant Fleet, this must-attend event will offer the opportunity to engage directly with the decision makers and thought leaders charged with delivering the government’s transformational defence programs and shaping our national security.
Hosted by veteran journalist and political commentator David Speers, hear Defence Industry Minister Pat Conroy in person as he spearheads an exciting list of policymakers, decision makers and thinkers, including Shadow Minister for Defence Andrew Hastie.
The speakers will detail and respond to the government’s plans for the nation’s defence industry, delivering unique, critical insights and analyses of the budget while addressing key issues.
Numbers for the summit will be limited and those hoping to secure a table at the event will need to move quickly – a waitlist will be created on a first-come, first-served basis.
More speakers will be announced shortly.
