Thinklogical will meet with world-leading experts from the military, government, academia and industry to discuss enhancing national electronic warfare abilities

Thinklogical, a Belden Brand (NYSE:BDC), an innovative manufacturer of secure, high-performance video distribution (VDS) and KVM signal extension and switching systems, is excited to educate organizations and individuals from government, defense, industry and academia at AOC Europe 2023. The conference will be held in Bonn, Germany, on May 15-17, 2023, at World Conference Center Bonn.

On May 17, Rear Admiral Paddy McAlpine, senior global military advisor for Thinklogical, a Belden Brand, will lead a discussion at AOC Europe on advanced technologies in electronic warfare and cybersecurity.

While information technology and sensors proliferate across the battlespace, decision timelines continue to shorten for military leaders who want to maintain an advantage. As a result, they need to rely on advanced, highly secure, end-to-end signal management infrastructures that improve safe data access and deliver critical information when and where it’s needed.

Rear Admiral McAlpine will explain to industry leaders how taking an innovative approach to technology can improve security, streamline workflows, and reduce operational complexity. Conference attendees will learn how to connect military leaders with the volume of high-quality information they need to evaluate symmetrical threats, peer and near-peer competition, dynamic battlespaces, and rapidly evolving mission requirements.

To discover how to better correlate, aggregate, process and exploit data from all domains and sources, join Rear Admiral McAlpine in Theatre 1 at 15:30 on May 17 for his session: Gain the Information Advantage in Multi-Domain Operations.

“We are thrilled to have Senior Global Military Advisor Paddy McAlpine named as a keynote speaker at AOC Europe,” says Alexandra Cheever, President at Thinklogical. “His vast experience and expertise in command and control environments, coupled with Thinklogical’s cutting-edge products, make him the perfect candidate to discuss how our technology creates a secure environment for military operations. We are excited for Paddy to share his insights with the AOC Europe audience and showcase how Thinklogical is at the forefront of secure information sharing in today’s rapidly evolving military landscape.”

Before joining Thinklogical as a senior global military advisor and UK’s Joint Services Command and Staff College as a senior military mentor, Rear Admiral McAlpine served a 36-year career in the Royal Navy as a mine warfare clearance diver and surface warfare officer. Among his many achievements, he played a central role in clearing sea mines off Kuwait during the 1991 Gulf War and has commanded the Type 23 Frigate HMS SOMERSET and the Type 45 First of Class Destroyer HMS DARING.
