REPORT LAUNCH: THE SIXTH DOMAIN AND THE ROLE OF THE PRIVATE SECTOR - The United States and its allies and partners have laid out five operational domains for wartime—air, land, maritime, cyberspace, and space—but Russia’s war in Ukraine has revealed a sixth domain: the “sphere of activities” of the private sector. What is an effective strategy for the private sector in wartime, and why is developing this strategy critical for the effectiveness of US and allied militaries?

Please join the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security for the launch of the report “The sixth domain: The role of the private sector in warfare.” This event discusses how policymakers can forge a more constructive US government-private sector relationship for wartime and integrate the private sector as the missing sixth operational domain.

It features keynote remarks from Jen Easterly, director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, followed by a panel discussion with Frank Kramer, distinguished fellow and board director at the Atlantic Council; Greg Little, senior counselor at Palantir Technologies; Emma Schroeder, associate director, cyber statecraft initiative at the Atlantic Council; and Leonor Tomero, vice president for government relations at JA Green & Company.
