Human Factors in Defence Design and Deployment: Peer-to-Peer Technical Leadership
Join this peer-led learning session with K Sharp, specialists in Human Factors, human-centred design and user experience. This interactive discussion will explore how a deeper understanding of people, behaviours and operational environments can help defence start-ups develop technologies that are safer, more effective and more readily adopted by end users. Rather than a traditional presentation, the session will create space for founders and technical leaders to share challenges, exchange experiences and learn from one another's approaches to designing and deploying solutions in complex defence settings.
