The two-day event witnessed enthusiastic participation from academia, industry, policy makers, and senior government officials, alongside naval personnel nationwide. Sessions explored themes such as innovation in niche technologies, harnessing Indian industry potential for naval armament, and the future of aviation in algorithmic warfare.
