ABCD 2023

Technology and Warfare – How to Stay Ahead of the Game?

What emerging disruptive technologies will be shaping the future character of warfare? What can small nations—such as Estonia—offer in the pursuit of technological superiority and qualitative edge over their adversaries? What insights can we draw from the ongoing war in Ukraine? How are these insights informing the perspective of the defence industry? Which concepts for technology and its employment is the war validating, modifying, or rendering irrelevant?
