The G’Day USA Defence Industry Dialogue on October 12 in Washington DC brought together over 400 US and Australian industry professionals and government leaders to explore future projects, mutual investment opportunities, advanced manufacturing capabilities and policy challenges. Presented by Team Defence Australia and Northrop Grumman Corporation, the day long event featured keynote addresses, panel discussions and tech presentations from industry, policy and national security experts.

 

Following the Dialogue, guests joined us for the Defence Industry Reception presented by Precision Public Affairs at the newly reopened Australian Embassy where we celebrated The Whiskey Project Group’s landmark export contract with the United States Defense Innovation Unit.

 

On October 13 we were back at the Embassy for the G’Day USA Defence Innovation Roundtable. Presented by HII, the Roundtable brought together thought leaders from tech, space, quantum, AI, energy and defence to share insights and ideas, and discuss the strengths, opportunities and challenges we face in the AUKUS era.
