2024 Agenda

UDT 2024

Over the three days of UDT, our conference addressed the current challenges faced by the underwater defense and security community while also exploring evolving future opportunities for the industry. This year, our agenda focused on the difficulties of navigating underwater landscape challenges with six main focus areas: platform design, sensors and processing, weapons and countermeasures, uncrewed, remotely piloted, and autonomous systems, operational drivers, and AI and big data.

Register Interest for 2025


Please note: Further information for 2025 will be published in due course.
