Agenda Background Members Definition Vision Objectives Workstreams End state Funding Request from SEG
Background Themes from first T&FG report to SEG: Don t try to do everything at once. Focus on the framework definition, industrial focus, terms of engagement, connections. Bring together existing CoEs and similar. If considering new CoE focus on one to start. Respond to demand from cohorts of companies. Build upon previous work, but don t be constrained by it. Look to virtual as well as physical CoE. Framework for CoEs being considered should be relevant and apply to maritime activity beyond shipbuilding.
