NATO WARFIGHTING IN THE DIGITAL AGE PROGRAMME 20-24 OCT 2025
WRAPPING UP AN INCREDIBLE WEEK DELIVERING THE NATO WITDA (WARFIGHTING IN THE DIGITAL AGE) PROGRAMME AT NCIA OEIRAS, PORTUGAL.
Over five packed days, last week, the IKE Institute team, worked with an outstanding group of NATO professionals exploring what “digital transformation” really means in a military context - not as a buzzword, but as a mindset shift and “doing things in the new ways”.
We dug into how data, automation, AI (Artificial Intelligence), and cyber resilience can make NATO operations faster, smarter, and more secure. From data cleaning and pipeline development through data fabric design and dashboard visualisation, to Zero Trust architectures and AI-enabled decision cycles, every session was about turning capability theory into operational reality.
The best part? Watching participants connect the dots, inking digital tools, frameworks, and processes directly to their own operational challenges to deliver improved decision cadence and military tempo.
Huge thanks to everyone who presented, contributed, questioned, challenged, and shared insight throughout the week. Your engagement made this programme exactly what it should be: practical, forward-looking, and unapologetically collaborative.
