2024 Military Tactical Communications Summit Speakers Announced – PR.com
National Harbor, MD, August 08, 2024 –(PR.com)– Defense Strategies Institute is pleased to announce the speaker line-up at the Military Tactical Communications Summit, taking place September 25-26, 2024, at 151 St George in National Harbor, MD.
The USG and DoD have been heavily involved in special programming around the use of tactical communications within defense operations, disaster response, and resilience, as well as space-based communication systems. There is a growing push for national spending on communication infrastructure and its impact on defense capabilities and national security. Proposed amendments to the Communications Act would close gaps in the original legislation and push the nation closer to a shared infrastructure for the collection and dissemination of communication data.
This year’s Summit will convene senior-level military and government officials, academia leaders and industry partners to discuss the latest developments, projects, and partnerships concerning tactical communications.

· Elizabeth Durham-Ruiz, SES – Director, C4 and CIO, STRATCOM
