Lysle Roberts Memorial Luncheon Series

The Lysle Roberts Memorial Luncheon series returns to Canberra this year. Join us for lunch with distinguished leaders from Defence, industry & academia.

1200-1400h

AVM (Ret’d) John Blackburn, AO
Former Deputy Chief of Air Force

Our guest speaker for September is AVM (Ret'd) John Blackburn, AO, former Deputy Chief of Air Force and one of Australia’s pre-eminent consultants in Defence and National Security. He will speak of the importance of supply chain and give his assessment of Australia’s preparedness or otherwise. Rather than be surprised by current issues, we need to ensure the same mistakes don’t carry forward.
