The Society of American Military Engineers (SAME) Ukraine Chapter, in partnership with PGR Consulting and American University Kyiv, continues its expert discussion series “Critical Infrastructure Protection: Challenges and Solutions.” These events are designed to strengthen dialogue between government institutions and private industry, highlighting the most urgent needs and solutions in the protection of critical infrastructure.
Our upcoming session focuses on “Defence Industry Role in Critical Infrastructure Protection.”
Participants will review current and emerging technologies in identification, interception, communication, and cybersecurity, while examining integration challenges and stakeholder coordination.
Together we will explore:
• Innovative CIP solutions – identification, interception, communication & cyber
• Integration challenges and stakeholder communication
• Donor support for CIP & procurement frameworks
Two panels — featuring solutions providers and solution consumers — will provide a multi-perspective exchange to foster practical cooperation and accelerate the deployment of advanced defence technologies to protect Ukraine’s critical infrastructure.
