Everything is a matter of Perception
What was seen and heard during the AFCEA Conference in Bratislava can not be described in a few words but for me, it simply was one of the most significant experiences I have ever had.
A theoretical person like me would not be in the position to understand technical characteristics, IT breakthroughs and projects designed to enhance security in businesses and government divisions. However,

An appreciation of AFCEA Cloud Computing Conferences
Note from the President
After the creation of the AFCEA Student Club, the future expanded tremendously, inviting us to conquer our dreams and accomplish our objectives by the day. The Creation of such a Student Club at DEREE – The American College of Greece was unexpected for most people and even to its creators; professor Harry Athanassopoulos and I did not expect that this would be such a huge breakthrough accomplishment.

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”
May 26, 2011
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.

The origin of the AFCEA Student Club itself fascinates me! It is a way to open your mind into new experiences and observe the different perspective of reality, the actual future business world.
I feel that this is an amazing opportunity for those who are ready to explore new fields, technology-focused directions, which will give them further knowledge in several business areas.
Having done my research, I recognize that the future of business lies inside the AFCEA TechNet Conferences.

For the DEREE – The American College of Greece students who want to know tomorrow’s news today, the AFCEA Student Club seems the most appropriate place to be. Through the bi-annual fieldtrips AFCEA Student Club organizes; its members, DEREE students and/or alumni, have the unique opportunity to attend the AFCEA TechNets and Student Conferences and other events. It is where one can have access to technology innovations, breakthroughs and ideas that will be out in the public after 2-3 years or more! It is also a very good place one can build connections. Large scale corporations’ CEOs (like Verizon, Dell, Microsoft, Thales, NATO, etc.) attend and/or give presentations there every year, thus making themselves available for lobbing; a major privilege for all the participants.
