With the ever-strengthening ties between the Republic of Korea and Australia, this one-day policy-driven conference will assess future capability requirements for both the Korean and Australian Defence forces.
Australia has had close ties with the Republic of Korea (ROK) for many years. 17,000 Australians fought in the 1950-53 Korean war. That bond is growing, particularly in the procurement of defence capability. In 2023 Hanwha became the first Asian company to win a multi-billion dollar Australian defence contract. In October last year the ROK Minister of National Defense met with the Australian Defence Minister to reaffirm the Comprehensive Strategic Partnership between the two countries. The Ministers emphasised that the Australia-ROK defence relationship continues to develop in a positive direction based on shared strategic interests. They exchanged signed MOUs between the ROK Army, Navy, Air Force, and the Australian Army, the Royal Australian Navy, and the Royal Australian Air Force to create opportunities for increased interoperability and more complex military exercises.
ADM Events, a partnership between the Australian Defence Magazine, and Informa Connect, the world’s largest organizer of business events, will produce this important and timely conference which will bring together leading prime Defence contractors, their supply chain SMEs and senior personnel from the Defence forces and Departmental staff from both Australia and the Republic of Korea.
