3 March 19 th, 2014 Welcome to our nation s capital, Ottawa, Canada and our Global Government Defense Network Conference In today s world of rapid change, evolving asymmetric threats, escalating cost pressures, and technological advances, the mandate to drive traditional defence capabilities and organizations to greater agility is broadly recognized. For defence leaders, the 21 st century brings a daunting mix of familiar threats and new challenges. Defence leaders know that combating the threats of this new century requires new defence strategies and more capable defence organizations to support them. Such organizations must be smart, fast, adaptive, collaborative and accountable in a word: agile. But while this requirement is generally well-recognized, creating more agile organizations will require strong leadership and difficult change. With the above backdrop in mind, we have assembled here today our top defence practitioners from The Five Eyes, government defence leadership from around the globe and private and public sector organizations who are called upon to develop and implement defence and national security strategies for their respective nations or international security alliances. We encourage you all to engage in the panel discussion and presentation briefings surrounding the challenges of government defence organizations today and tomorrow. This is a unique opportunity to network with colleagues and share in global strategies that can influence and shape a smoother path towards a safer future. In closing, we d like to thank each of your for attending our conference and bringing your expertise to our gathering. A safer future through our connected knowledge and innovation.
