The inaugural Global SOF Foundation (GSF) Modern Warfare Symposium and Expo brought our special operations forces (SOF) community to Ft. Bragg from August 21-23, 2018. We had nearly 450 attendees check in, and over 40% were military or government representatives.
Co-sponsored by the U.S. Army Special Operations Forces Command (USASOC), the purpose of this event was to convene subject matter experts, SOF, conventional units, and academia to both educate and connect through discussion about the future of modern warfare from a SOF perspective.
Highlights were:
- Attendees included subject matter experts, Army SOF, conventional units, industry, and academia
- Brought together nearly 450 attendees from 17 countries
- The third day of the Symposium featured a SOF for Life Seminar, aimed at SOF and SOF support who are transitioning or recently transitioned from Active Duty
Modern Warfare Expo
This Exhibit-Hall focused event took place in conjunction with the Symposium, and offered 30+ exhibits from companies with capabilities that are needed by Army SOF.
