AUSTRALIAN ARMY AT LAND FORCES 2024
Chief of Army Welcome
Welcome to this year’s Chief of Army Symposium (CAS), held in conjunction with Land Forces 2024 International Land Defence Exposition.
As a key supporter of Land Forces, the Australian Army is proud to host CAS 2024 on Thursday 12 September. The event is open to all Land Forces attendees.
The CAS 2024 program aims to facilitate meaningful information exchange and foster a dynamic contest of ideas that challenges us to think differently.
The Australian Army will also host the Army Innovation Day (AID) and Quantum Technology Challenge (QTC) Expositions over the first two days of Land Forces. These expos will showcase innovative concepts addressing current and future operational challenges and are open to all event attendees.
I encourage you to explore and engage with the impressive exhibitors involved in the AID and QTC Expos.
I look forward to joining you at Land Forces 2024 and welcoming you to CAS 2024.
Simon Stuart, AO, DSC

Chief of Army Symposium (CAS) 2024
For the first time, the Chief of Army Symposium (CAS 2024) is open to all Land Forces attendees.
CAS 2024 is the Chief of Army’s capstone event, to engage his people, partner forces and allies, defence industry, and academia and research organisations.
The theme for the symposium is ‘The Human Face of Battle’. Amidst ever-changing strategic circumstances, humans remain enduring, they are at the centre of everything we do.
The Human Face of Battle will shape the presentations and panel discussions held during the symposium. Hear from Defence leaders and distinguished thinkers as they explore the evolution of the profession of arms.
Attending the symposium is your opportunity to hear direct from the Australian Army.
PLEASE NOTE: While attendance to this session is free for all participants, entry is not guaranteed. Seating will be assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, and once the venue reaches its maximum capacity, access will be closed.
Army Innovation Day 2024 (AID24)
AID24 is a strategic collaboration between the Advanced Strategic Capabilities Accelerator and the Australian Army.
Each year, Army poses a new challenge theme to industry to encourage development of innovative technology that can help solve some of our most complex problems.
This year, the challenge is:
Optimising the Soldier for Littoral Operations.
Intellectual Property and Advanced Manufacturing Briefing Session
The Australian Army is seeking to engage with defence industry on the topic of intellectual property and data management for the purposes of enabling advanced manufacturing.
There will be two briefing sessions and one Q&A session held throughout Land Forces 2024. Expressions of interest to attend these sessions are now open.
Quantum Technology Challenge (QTC)
Quantum Technology Challenge (QTC) sees Australia’s best quantum thinkers competing to demonstrate how quantum technologies can solve critical Army problems and deliver unprecedented capabilities.
Quantum technology doesn’t provide new weapons or redefine systems. Instead, it exploits the fundamental laws of nature and has presented Army with unprecedented capabilities.
