Islamic State: A resurgent threat

Dragonfly is pleased to invite you to a special online briefing in which we will assess the evolving threat posed by the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group and its global affiliates. This briefing marks the release of The Long War, our latest Intelligence Spotlight report.

This will take place on Thursday, 5 June at 1600hrs London / 1700hrs Paris / 1900hrs Dubai / 1100hrs New York.

IS remains one of the world’s most resilient terrorist organisations. Despite losing ground and senior leaders, the group’s appeal has endured. Dragonfly data shows that IS and its affiliates remain a persistent and adaptive threat across parts of Africa, Asia and the Middle East, while continuing to inspire individuals and attacks well beyond its core areas of activity. We will use this session to share key insights from The Long War, our latest strategic assessment of the evolving threat posed by the IS and its global affiliates.

In this briefing, our experts will cover:

• Our global outlook on IS and its affiliates over the next 12 months
• Analysis of how IS is regrouping and expanding in fragile and weakly governed regions
• Key trends and dynamics IS is likely to exploit to grow its presence and reach
• High-impact scenarios to watch that would shape the trajectory of IS activity
• Practical insights to help organisations anticipate and mitigate emerging risks

The briefing will include an opportunity for you to pose questions to our panel.
