1 March 2021 No 13-1/21/989-1 European Unmanned Ground Systems seminar Dear Colleagues It is my pleasure to invite you to participate at the European Unmanned Ground Systems Seminar taking place in Tallinn, Estonia on the 15th of April 2021. The seminar will be organized in connection with the EDIDP project “integrated Modular Unmanned Ground Systems” (iMUGS) and PESCO project “integrated Unmanned Ground Systems” (iUGS) by the Estonian Centre of Defence Investments. As Estonia is the coordinator for both of these projects, we decided to unite their activities this time into one event in order to look at the UGS developments from a broader perspective. We will start with high- level discussions to understand the current situation and the future of the “European Unmanned Ground Systems” from the NATO, EC and EDA perspective. After that the participating member states of these projects will have a chance to share their recent experience with UGS’s and discuss the next steps for mutual projects. The detailed time schedule is attached to the invitation. Due to the COVID pandemic restrictions, it will be also possible to participate in the online format. Please register your participation by sending an e-mail to Mr. Martin Jõesaar, Chief of iMUGS Project Office, Estonian Centre for Defence Investments (E-mail: [email protected], Tel.: +372 53089490). The following information should be stated: Your organisation, role, contact information and whether you are planning to participate online or in-person.
