Call for Speakers submissions due
Friday 11 May 2018

Next is a forum for future strategic leaders to share their forward thinking ideas for next-generation national security. It is your opportunity to influence the future of Australia’s national security. Next presents you with the platform to present a six-minute burst of fresh ideas, insights and thoughts to a high-powered audience of Defence and national security leaders, including current and former service chiefs, departmental and agency leaders, leading academics, and think-tank executives. It’s the kind of audience that normally has the podium.

This time, it’s you – and they’re listening to what you have to say.

Building on the success of our November Next, our June 2018 speakers will also be invited to attend an Innovation Workshop facilitated by leading Australian consulting firm, ThinkPlace. They will be taught crucial presentation skills and provided with a safe space to workshop their ideas before presenting them at our June event.
