2nd C-IED Technology Workshop in Madrid

The aim of the event was to facilitate the communication among Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) including military, law enforcement, industry and academic communities from both NATO and non-NATO countries in order to exchange best practises, highlight new technologies and develop the requirements to stay ahead of the rapidly evolving IED threat.

Ten panels, chaired by recognized SMEs, gave a space for discussion emerging as a result of lectures. Moreover, attendees had also the opportunity to receive direct information  about current and future proposals to facilitate C-IED capability enhancing from companies in-site in the exibition area. Each discussion panel proposed viable solutions to the main shortfalls concerning C-IED fight and particularly those requiring technological developments.

The EOD COE took over responsibility for managing the panel themed  “The future of ECM to Counter RCIEDs” and set up the booth at the exhibition area.
