Participants
We are looking for a diverse group of participants to engage in these activities throughout the day. Conference attendees are encouraged to visit the DualTech Theatre at any time to learn more about this innovative wargaming approach, explore the technologies in action, and even influence the evolving strategic and operational picture.
To ensure a broad range of perspectives, the two participant teams will be made up of individuals from various age groups and professional backgrounds. No prior wargaming or simulation experience is required—each team will have dedicated digital simulation operators providing direct support.
Join us for a unique opportunity to interact with cutting-edge simulation technology, take part in strategic discussions, and help shape the future of digital wargaming.
