IEEE Military Communications Conference (MILCOM) 2024
2024-10-28 - 2024-11-01 | Washington Hilton, 1919 Connecticut Ave NW, Washington DC, 20009, United States
Now in its 44th year, MILCOM has been the preeminent forum bringing together thought leaders in government, industry, and academia to discuss the innovative research and cutting-edge technologies that are shaping the future of military communications.
Cambridge Consultants’ Taylor Pearlman, Next-Generation Networks Lead, will be moderating a panel session focused on ‘Autonomous networks for the next generation of military connectivity.’
Driven by advances in AI technology, autonomous and AI-driven networks are poised to offer a new paradigm of connectivity for the D.O.D. These offer fundamentally new capabilities to military networks, including the potential to dynamically adapt networks to a changing battlefield, automatically detect and mitigate threats and attacks, and seamlessly route connectivity to warfighters in the most difficult, adverse environments. Autonomous networks that offer more flexibility, resiliency, and adaptability allow the D.O.D. to effortlessly maintain situational awareness and reliable communications in combat environments and improve on-base wireless performance.
Conversely, these networks demand a new paradigm in cybersecurity to ensure secure operation. Autonomous and AI-driven networks open an entirely new attack surface to nation-state actors that will require a new series of tools, tactics, and strategies to secure and maintain.
This panel will address the potential and the complications of autonomous networks for military use, including the key questions:

What do highly autonomous networks look like in a D.O.D. context (both on-base and on-battlefield, and what value would they bring?
What aspects of autonomous networks can be leveraged from the telecoms industry, and what cannot (or shouldn’t)?
How can such networks be secured from sophisticated, peer-peer adversaries?
What actions should the DoD, integrator, and research community do now to pave the way for military adoption of AI-enabled networking?

Panelists include:

Ayodele Damola, Director of AI/ML Strategy, Ericsson
Gustave Anderson, Associate Fellow, Lockheed Martin
Bishal Thapa, Research Leader, RTX
Lieutenant Colonel Benjamin Pimentel, Communications Officer and Electronics Engineer, Marine Corps

Cyber Security
12.10pm – 1.10pm, 27 March 2025 ‐ 1 hour
Room: Francis Crick Auditorium
Breakout 1
Speakers:
Josie Houghton, Cyber Security Lead, Rolls-Royce SMR
Professor John A McDermid OBE, Lloyds Register Foundation Chair of Safety, Director Centre for Assuring Autonomy, University of York
Cyber security incidents can have impacts that harm the viability of an organisation, either directly through financial losses or indirectly through the loss of trust and reputational damage that comes with being known as an organisation that provides technology or services with inadequate defences. In critical industries, the rise of digitisation means that the potential impacts now include the loss of financial stability of an entire country, physical harm to the general public, or damage to the wider environment.
The modern organisation needs to adapt to new technologies, such as AI and quantum computers, that bring new threats, and actively innovate within the context of doing business in an increasingly hostile cyberspace. All this has to be achieved while ensuring that cyber security investment does not become a financial black hole.
With the stakes so high and at least partial failure feeling like an inevitability, join us as we explore how modern organisations develop the culture, technologies and processes to move beyond brittle ways of working and towards being resilient in the face of cyber-attacks.

How can we design critical systems to be less vulnerable to attack?
How do we keep essential services going in the presence of on-going attacks?
How do we recover from incidents and rebuild ever more resilient systems that deliver the critical services that society needs to function?

Tuesday 16th September – Seizing the AI Advantage in humanoid robotics
Deep tech is about applying radical science and engineering to shatter the status quo. For those with vision, courage and bold ambition, it creates new ways to win – in business, and for society.
Through this lens, keynote speaker Tim Ensor – EVP and Head of Intelligent Services at Cambridge Consultants – will explore the extraordinary potential of physical AI and humanoid robotics.
Surrounded by hype and expectation, humanoid robotics is expected to become a US$1.4tr market by 2050. But there’s a catch. To be truly integrated into the human world, robots need to be teammates not tools. This demands a complex mix of psychology and sensing to ensure humanoids ‘get us’ at a much deeper level. And that’s where a deep tech strategy comes in.

Humanoid robot forum
2025-09-23 | Sheraton Grand Seattle, Sheraton Grand Seattle, 1400 6th Ave, Seattle, WA, 98101, United States
We all agree: robots – especially humanoids – must collaborate with humans. But how do we actually make that happen? True collaboration means more than coexisting. It’s about machines and humans learning from one another, anticipating actions, adapting in real time, and most importantly building trust.
But let’s be honest,  humans themselves struggle with collaboration at times. So how do we expect machines to be good at it?
That’s the challenge and the opportunity. Ram will be exploring this in-depth topic at the upcoming Fireside Chat during A3’s Humanoid Forum.
Join us as we unpack what real human-robot collaboration looks like – and what it takes to get there!

Fireside Chat: How to Unlock Human Robot Collaboration Through Behavioral Sciences
4:00 PM – 4:30 PM (PDT)
