Step into the future battlefield in this immersive wargame exploring the strategic, ethical, and operational challenges posed by emerging and disruptive technologies. Participants will assume the roles of state and non-state actors navigating a rapidly shifting technological landscape shaped by artificial intelligence, quantum computing, autonomous systems, and biotechnology. Through scenario-based play, teams will confront dilemmas around escalation, alliance management, and innovation under uncertainty—testing how tomorrow’s technologies could transform today’s doctrines. Designed for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers, the exercise encourages creative problem-solving and interdisciplinary debate. Whether you’re a strategist, scientist, or technologist, this wargame offers a unique opportunity to experience how emerging capabilities may redefine deterrence, decision-making, and global security. Join us to think, act, and compete at the cutting edge of twenty-first-century conflict.
