This dynamic, audience‑driven session flips the traditional innovation pitch format on its head. Instead of suppliers pitching solutions, the customers—frontline users, programme leads, and operational stakeholders—take the stage to present their real‑world challenges, unmet needs, and emerging use cases.

Confirmed speakers:

• Moderator:  Linc Taylor, Co-founder & Director, Pharazon Limited
• Ted Colbert, Board Director and Former CIO
• Tim Ketten-Locke, Deputy Director of the Defence Office for Small Business Growth- MoD
• Matthew Sobecki, Former U.S. Army Futures Command, Defense Innovation & Ventures
