War is changing. The proliferation of drones, the rise of artificial intelligence, a scramble for resources powering both digital and physical arsenals and a desire for seamless connectivity across land, air, sea, space and cyber are reshaping national security and the defense industry.

Join Axios for our launch event commemorating our new weekly 'Future of Defense' newsletter in Washington, D.C., where leading voices will unpack the trends upending warfare in an era of geopolitical tension — and how powers large and small are adapting.
