Why Sponsor?
AOC connects electromagnetic warfare practitioners, industry partners, policymakers, and procurement decision-makers.
For over 55 years, electronic warfare (EW), electromagneticspectrum operations (EMSO), cyber-electromagnetic activities (CEMA), and information operations (IO) professionals from military, government, industry, and academia have looked to the Association of Old Crows (AOC) to provide access to emerging technologies and the latest developments to protect the warfighter.
Now more than ever it's important to leverage emerging technologies and the latest developments to protect the warfighter. AOC sponsorships are a great way to actively participate in the ever-changing electromagnetic spectrum operations (EMSO) industry.
