HELICOPTER TECHNOLOGY EASTERN EUROPE 2015 POST CONFERENCE MASTERCLASS:

How to do business with the Czech Air Forces16.30 - 19.30

Thursday 25th June 2015, Dorint Hotel Don Giovanni Prague

For many defence companies growth opportunities come in the form of geographical expansion and entering new markets

Yet understanding and navigating local government defenceprocurement processes is where many organizations fall down.

If you are interested in doing business with the Czech ArmedForces then this unique and informative masterclass will allow you to understand the procurement process within the MoD from ‘contact to contract.’

Topics covered will include:• Understanding how the Czech MoD issue RFIs, Tenders and

down selects • Which are the right departments to approach and how best to

do this • When you need to partner with local industry to make your

opportunity more effective • How to work effectively with Czech companies • Current and predicted future Military Helicopter Requirements

and the types of equipment likely to be considered/selected

Dear Colleague,

It is with great pleasure that I invite you to participate in HelicopterTechnology Eastern Europe taking place between the 24th and 25th of June2015 in Prague.

As nations in Central and Eastern Europe continue to upgrade their defenceequipment, the military helicopter has become a focus of many air forceswishing to ensure they have a strong rotary fleet capable of multifunctionaloperations. All the past and ongoing multinational operations abroad haveproved vital importance of the capable aviation assets and emphasisedneed of their interoperability. That is why it is so important to prepare NATOand EU member state’s Aviation forces for future multinational operationsfrom two perspectives. We do need to have in mind that the technicalinteroperability is a basic condition to succeed. However, the airmen trainingand common operational procedures are even more important in order toplay in accordance with “the same sheet of music” like a well preparedphilharmonic orchestra.

There is therefore a need for a high level meeting that brings togethersenior military leadership, project decision makers and technical expertsalongside the helicopter manufacturers and cutting edge industry solutionproviders to collaborate on future endeavours that will enhance the securityand stability of Eastern Europe and its neighbouring countries.

I believe Helicopter Technology Eastern Europe is the perfectenvironment for this collaboration, hence lending my support behind theconference as chairman.

We would ask you to pay particular attention to our conferenceagenda which has been put together with great care to give you the verybest opportunity to benchmark and learn from subject matter experts. Wehave invited only the most senior and well respected Helicopter ProgrammeManagers and the seniority of the speakers is a demonstration of thecommunities support for such an important regional forum.

We are delighted that Brigadier General Libor Stefanik, Commander,Czech Air Force will be supporting the event and delivering the opening hostnation keynote address. As I am sure you know, the Czech Air Force isprioritising the advancement of its military helicopter capabilities, and it isvery fitting that the commander will share his thoughts on this ongoingmodernisation of the nation’s rotary fleet.

I am looking forward to meeting you in June 2015 with many other likeminded individuals to ensure you too can benefit from this unique forum.

Yours Sincerely,

Major General Bohuslav Dvorak, Former Deputy Chief of theGeneral Staff, Currently Chief of Advisors to Minister of Defence,Czech Armed Forces
