SUMMARY:Golden Dome and the Future of U.S. Missile Defense
DESCRIPTION:Contributors’ Circle and Global Forum members are invited to a pre-event reception with the speaker starting at 5:30. To check if your membership qualifies\, sign in. \nFor decades\, missile defense has been one of the hardest problems in national security. The threats have grown: more countries\, more missiles\, more advanced systems. The Golden Dome initiative aims to meet that challenge by building a next-generation shield over the U.S. homeland\, using new technology and integrated systems to counter modern threats. \nLieutenant General Daniel Karbler spent his career at the heart of this work. He led missile defense operations at the highest levels and helped shape how America approaches deterrence and defense. He brings firsthand insight into what it takes to protect the homeland and what Golden Dome will demand to succeed. \nWe’ll explore what the Golden Dome initiative is and why it matters now. We’ll also look at the key challenges ahead – operational\, strategic\, and technical – and what success could mean for the U.S. and its allies. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nLieutenant General Daniel L. Karbler (Ret.)\, U.S. Army\, is a senior adviser (non-resident) with the Missile Defense Project at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) and a member of its advisory board. For over three decades\, Karbler served our nation in a variety of positions in the United States and around the world. An expert in complex air and missile defense and space operations\, he has extensive experience in effectively leading military commands\, conducting operations\, requirements and capability development\, test and evaluation\, and budget formulation. Throughout his tenure\, he oversaw changes in Department of Defense strategic missions and led major mergers\, restructuring\, and relocation of organizations as directed by the President of the United States. Prior to retiring from the Army as a Lieutenant General\, he led the U.S. Army’s Space and Missile Defense Command. He has conducted numerous interviews and guest lectured on the topics of strategic leadership at various think tank\, media\, and academic venues and is a published author with War on the Rocks. \nABOUT THE MODERATOR \n \nJoe DeAntona is the executive director of Requirements & Capabilities within Customer Growth and Transformation at Raytheon\, a business of RTX.

SUMMARY:Nuclear and National Security: The Sovereign Power Race for AI Dominance
DESCRIPTION:The nation that controls reliable\, baseload\, carbon-free power will position itself well for the AI race – and that competition is already underway. Russia’s Rosatom has spent two decades quietly binding dozens of countries to 60-year nuclear dependency relationships\, while China is building more reactors than the rest of the world combined\, laying the energy foundation for sovereign AI compute at unprecedented scale. \nThis program will take the 30\,000-foot view of a contest most people don’t yet recognize as a contest: the race to control the uranium supply chain\, the fuel cycle\, and the next generation of small modular reactors that will power not just electricity grids\, but military bases\, allied nations\, and the data centers that will define who leads in artificial intelligence for the next half century. \nABOUT THE SPEAKERS \n \nJacob Bolinger focuses his practice in the areas of construction and government contracts\, advising clients on contract drafting\, negotiation\, and administration\, regulatory compliance\, delay disputes\, changes\, requests for equitable adjustment and claims\, and related litigation. His work spans sizable and sophisticated military\, transportation\, nuclear\, data center\, and other critical infrastructure projects\, including public and private construction projects. \n \nPhil Lookadoo is a partner in the Energy Practice Group of Haynes Boone. Phil’s practice addresses energy transactions and regulatory compliance in oil\, natural gas\, power and renewables\, commodity trading and derivatives (hedging versus spec trades)\, mergers and acquisitions\, and project development (including project O&M\, PPA\, project financing and grid interconnections). \n \nWith more than 30 years of leadership at the highest levels of both the public and private sectors\, The Honorable Douglas A. Smith serves as Global Head of Public Affairs\, Managing Director for Middle East at The Nuclear Company. Smith served as an Assistant Secretary for the Private Sector at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security\, where he became a central figure in strengthening its global business engagement. He championed public-private partnerships to support a more resilient and secure America. A recognized expert on public-private partnerships and the critical link between national security and economic security\, Smith is a frequent international speaker whose insights have informed policy and business leaders around the world.

SUMMARY:Strategy Under Pressure: Understanding the Trajectory of Risk
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This event is managed by the Dallas Business Club. \nDallas Business Club is pleased to host Dr. Robert Pape in December for a timely discussion on how business leaders can think more strategically in a period of global instability. \nWhen conflict escalates\, business leaders are forced to make decisions in an environment shaped by uncertainty\, market volatility\, and fast-moving public narratives. Rather than focusing on political science\, Prof Pape will discuss his experience advising the highest level political and business leaders here and abroad. \nABOUT THE SPEAKER \nDr. Robert A. Pape is one of the nation’s foremost authorities on national security\, military strategy\, terrorism\, and political violence. His work offers business leaders and globally engaged audiences a powerful framework for understanding how conflicts begin\, why sanctions and coercion succeed or fail\, and how geopolitical instability can reshape markets\, institutions\, and strategic decisions.
