Recognised as the world’s premier event for the armoured vehicle community, the IAVs conference gathers defence leaders and features exceptional speakers to share perspectives on the latest technologies, trends and concepts for land vehicles and force protection. As presenters, TSS & SKYDEX represent a select group of extraordinary companies who are at the forefront of innovation in the protection space. On February 2 at 1330 GMT, the team will present an industry insights session which will be focused on armour platform blast protection.
“We’re excited to have the opportunity to participate in the annual International Armoured Vehicles Conference this year and connect with leaders from the armoured community despite the challenges of the pandemic,” said Rowland Wright, Business Development Manager at SKYDEX. “Our industry insights session will give us the opportunity to highlight the benefits of our blast mitigation solutions for armoured vehicle designers and offer a closer look at the incredible technology which is engineered to enhance occupant survivability. The company’s advanced materials solve a range of protection challenges for all vehicle platforms and protect the lives of their users.”
Louis Huijzen, Managing Director of TSS adds to that: “In close collaboration with SkyDex and our clients, we have been able to gain valuable insights into the threats in the field and how they can concretely be reduced to acceptable levels. We are very happy to be able to share these insights with the audience at IAV.”
For the first time, the IAVs event will be hosted online due to the ongoing uncertainty surrounding COVID-19. Although the conference has pivoted to a virtual environment it will continue to deliver an outstanding level of content and feature expanded conversations plus new sessions about C4i, Amphibious Vehicle capability, robotics and autonomy, to name a few.
