China's military modernisation continues to accelerate, reshaping the strategic landscape across the Indo-Pacific and beyond. As the People's Liberation Army (PLA) advances its capabilities across the maritime, air, and missile domains, defence organisations need validated data and analysis to understand what these developments mean for force planning, operational readiness, and future security challenges.

Drawing on validated intelligence and deep domain expertise, our panel will provide practical insights into emerging capabilities, modernisation priorities, and the implications for regional and global security.

• Elliot Chapman, Manager, Military Intelligence and Insight, Janes
• Jon Grevatt, Head of APAC News, Janes
