Chief Warrant Officer Four Shawn Petermann's interview can be downloaded on the conference website at http://www.mobiledeployable.com/prlog7.

Here is a snippet of what was discussed:

Q: In your opinion, what incoming technological innovation will be most disruptive for the C2 and CIS space?

A: "I believe that the commercial industry drive to the Internet of everything is going to be one of the most significant game changers for tactical communicators at large.  What we have seen in the last decade is a growth of military focused integrators developing tailored solutions that meet Defense needs, some of these capabilities have been fantastic and at the time were considered game changing.  However, when the commercial sector needs match the Defense need, what we see is revolutionary."

Chief Warrant Officer Four Shawn Petermann will speak on Day One of the event to present on "CIS Requirements for the Airborne Warfighter," which will cover:

• An introduction to Joint Communications Support Element and its role in supporting operations
• Building interoperability with partner forces and developing share capability
• Unique requirements for the Airborne Warfighter
• Final concluding comments on where JCSE intends to develop moving forward

With just three weeks to go until Mobile Deployable Communications 2021 takes place, interested parties are urged to register their place as soon as possible at: http://www.mobiledeployable.com/prlog7.
