Resiliance is a national imperative
Defence, economic security and technological capability are increasingly intertwined.
The nature of warfare is changing. Autonomous systems, drones, artificial intelligence, advanced sensing, cyber, space and asymmetric technologies are reshaping how military power is built, deployed and contested.
At the same time, geopolitical tensions and increasingly vulnerable global supply chains are forcing nations to think differently about what they must be able to build, secure and sustain themselves.
For Australia, resilience is about ensuring the country has the technology, industrial capability, capital and sovereign capacity to operate in a more contested world.
Defence sits at the centre of that challenge.
Defence Invest Australia brings together the companies building next-generation capability, the investors capable of funding their growth, and the defence, government and industry leaders responsible for turning innovation into real-world capability.
