Introduction to the Real World of Knowledge!

As a member of the AFCEA Student Club I first took part in the TechNet Europe 2011 in Bratislava. The theme of the TechNet was ” The Cloud computing and its use in the defensive environment“. 

The conference comprised two different sections. The first part was dedicated to security & cloud computing and how it may be implemented in the armed forces. The second part was about the deployment and integration in the armed forces like NATO but businesses as well.  The conference begun with the welcome speeches of people who are involved with AFCEA Europe in Slovakia and the Defense Ministry of Slovak Republic. In the first part of the conference the prospects, evolution, present and business application of cloud security was presented and analyzed. As a student it was very interesting to hear about different aspects.  Various speakers with different background presented various aspects.

Being new in AFCEA Student Club

The AFCEA Student Club

When I first heard about the AFCEA Student Club, my guess was that it was a common club where students would gather up and talk vaguely about technology. After participating in the first student club meeting I was astonished to discover that it was much more – A bridge between students and the wider field of business.

In the first student club meeting, which was basically a presentation of what AFCEA is to the new members, I realized that this is the only truly business-oriented club in the College. I found out that the club is part of an international non-profit association which deals with components that really fascinate me.

Majoring in Computer Information Systems and wanting to pursue a master’s degree in Information Technology, I have been exploring the field of technology for years. Discovering that communication, information technology, intelligence and global security are AFCEA’s main areas of focus was music to my ears.

I had finally found the milestone I had been searching for in such a long time!

“Cloud Computing and its use in the Defence Environment”

Bratislava, Slovakia

I strongly believe that the following conference will bring closer the AFCEA Student Club and the AFCEA Internationals. It will be both scientifically productive and enjoyable. In essence, we will travel all the way to Bratislava, see different places, meet new people with innovative ideas and different backgrounds. We will also have the opportunity to gain knowledge, ideas and will get informed of the latest technology developments, by meeting professionals from government, defence and industries.

Having done my research, I recognize that the future of business lies inside the AFCEA TechNet Conferences.
