What is this dialogue intended to do?

HDF is designed to create an annual forum for policy-relevant panel discussions that brings together stakeholders in order to support U.S. INDOPACOM in its mission of integrating US and allied forces across all domains, across equipment, across doctrine, and across policy to bolster deterrence in the Indo-Pacific region.

 

What is the composition of this dialogue?

This dialogue brings together 200 - 250 stakeholders from the defense "eco-system", defense and technology industry, military practitioners, policymakers, strategists, and think tank subject matter experts.

 

Will the plenary events be "on the record" and can media join?

The media may join the conference, but some sessions will be off-the-record or not-for-attribution. For any media inquiries please contact Shanna Khayat (Shanna@pacforum.org).

 

Will this event be in the classified realm?

This dialogue will focus on policy change, not classified aspects of plans or equipment, and therefore remain in the unclassified realm.
