Shephard RAF Air Power Official Conference 2010

Air Vice Marshall Tim Anderson, Assistant Chief of Air Staff said: "RAF APC 09 provided an outstanding forum within which we were able to share and build understanding of the essential role of air power in security and Defence with leaders and opinion formers from across government, the military and industry. We aim to repeat this success by using the RAF’s flagship conference for 2010 to engage a similarly wide-ranging audience, at what will be an important time for Defence in the round, in debating and exploring how air power can contribute most efficiently and effectively to securing our national interests. The RAF has been at the forefront of contemporary operations continuously for the last 19 years; RAF APC 10 will undoubtedly play a key role in helping us understand how we can best continue to deliver critical air and space capabilities across the entire spectrum of operations, both now and in the future."

Conference Programme

The Shephard Group has been selected to deliver the RAF Air Power Conference in 2010. This global event is an opportunity for air force leaders to gather in London and share their experiences of evolving strategies, capabilities and operations. Industry will be welcomed at the event to demonstrate how effective partnership can deliver beneficial outcomes for the military. The RAF is a world class and highly respected exponent of air power that operates globally with a variety of partners covering the spectrum of air power activities from high intensity war fighting to humanitarian relief operations. This event will examine the technology, training and thinking required to deliver on current operations and prepare for future ones. The conference will also seek to place air power in the wider defence environment and the comprehensive government approach. It will examine how to deliver air power within the joint battlespace.
