About the FORUM

Nine years ago, a select team of senior leaders with executive, expeditionary, and tactical communications experts from all echelons of The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) convened for the first time with leading technology companies to address prevalent communication challenges within this community. 

This engagement led to the creation of the annual Deployable Command & Control Technology Forum (DC2TF) – a small and focused educational working group designed to foster collaboration to solve critical problems related to C2. This forum seeks to develop solutions to mission-critical command, control, communication, computers, and cyber needs that address operational flexibility, security concerns, and advanced networking capabilities across various deployment platforms and operational environments. The forum is a unique opportunity for top
DoD communication organizations to engage with peer teams beyond their service, addressing common challenges and generating impactful solutions to contribute to their respective goals.

This year’s event will see government and industry delegates from several countries reconvene with a shared objective: strengthening their joint capabilities, enhancing readiness, and empowering warfighters by focusing on practical applications of connected battlefield technologies.

Over four days, attendees will benefit from presentations by distinguished keynote speakers, participate in working groups, undergo preparatory certification training opportunities, join panel discussions, and attend breakout sessions tailored to their specific organizational goals. 

About Warriors Ethos

Warriors Ethos is dedicated to providing assistance in the career planning, professional development, and placement of wounded service members, veterans, and their families throughout their transition.

Every year 250,000 service members transition from military service back into civilian life. For most, that transition is complicated, confusing, and marked by an immense pressure to find a job as quickly as possible. As a result, many service members struggle during and after their transition, with the effects often rippling into other areas of their lives.

At Warriors Ethos, we understand that preparation is the key to a successful transition. That’s why our program focuses on identifying career goals and aspirations as early as possible in the transition process. Concurrently, working through our network of mentors and coaches, we offer training on the skills and knowledge necessary to succeed in today’s work environment. Then, through partnerships with successful businesses, we assist our members in developing a career strategy that includes paid fellowship and employment opportunities in the careers that match their desires.

With a staff that’s 100% veteran, we believe service doesn’t stop when your military service ends. That’s why we ask our alumni to pay it forward by serving as a coach or mentor to subsequent members in the program. We believe continuing that legacy of service is a great way to complete our program.
