AOC Asia 2025 Concludes with Strong Global Participation and Focus on EMSO and AI
More than 450 participants from 17 countries and representing the military, government, academia, industry, and media gathered last week in Seoul, Republic of Korea, for AOC Asia 2025. This year’s conference featured a broad series of discussions focused on the latest developments in electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO), with particular attention to regional security challenges and the emerging role of artificial intelligence (AI) in shaping future operations.
AOC Asia received outstanding support from the Republic of Korea Air Force (ROKAF), including a keynote address from the ROKAF Chief of Staff and attendance by five former ROKAF Chiefs of Staff at the opening sessions. Their participation underscored the enduring strategic importance of spectrum superiority and the region’s commitment to collaborative defense innovation.
The event was made possible through the generous support of 14 corporate sponsors and the dedication of an international planning committee of AOC volunteers from Korea, Japan, Australia, and the United States, working alongside the AOC ROK Chapter, which hosted and led the conference.
AOC extends its sincere gratitude to all sponsors, partners, and participants who made AOC Asia 2025 a resounding success and a vital forum for advancing global dialogue on the future of EMSO.
