Chairman’s Welcome: Cdr Ian Hassall CEng CMarEng FIMarEST RN

Welcome to the EAAW International Symposia series, the leading forum which aims to unite the international platform and combat systems communities to resolve the integration challenges of current and future naval ships and submarines.

Chairman’s Welcome: Cdr Ian Hassall CEng CMarEng FIMarEST RN
Event Overview→

The international scale of naval programmes presents challenges for both equipment and personnel strategies, and this is particularly relevant with carrier enabled power projection dominating the naval agenda. This refreshed capability brings with it the challenge of total ship integration across the platform, combat and air boundaries, together with the reality of operating and maintaining these complex systems at sea. At this pivotal moment for the industry, the traditional platform and combat engineering disciplines are being driven closer together by the rapid development of technology with an ever more complex and software driven landscape in which to operate.

EAAW VIII entitled Evolving intelligent platforms for the future battlespace will bring together the international maritime community to update and discuss these challenges evolving now and the direction for the future through presentation and discussion of relevant themes and topics.

In addition, participants at this year’s Symposium will be able to join attendees at one of IMarEST’s other Learned Society Events – the Marine Electrical and Control Systems Safety Conference (MECSS 2019), both events will join forces on Day One with the aim to discuss the shared challenges for both the naval and commercial arenas inspiring innovation across the breadth of the maritime domain. MECSS 2019 will be organised in parallel to EAAW VIII enhancing the invaluable networking opportunities between government, industry and academic representatives both in the UK and overseas.

On behalf of the Technical Advisory Committee and IMarEST, we look forward to welcoming you to EAAW VIII and MECSS 2019 in July.

Chairman, EAAW VIII
