A biography of Sloggett by the International Technology Allisance suggests that he is very active on the speaking circuit, stating that he is "regularly asked to speak on matters related to intelligence collection and analysis in the context of contemporary military operations and has addressed the RUSI C4ISTAR Conference giving two speeches in the last two years [2005-2007] on these matters. In September 2006 he was invited to give a keynote address to a conference of leading international bankers in Lisbon on the future direction of terrorism in Europe in the 21st century. He also gave a speech on his work at the RUSI Suicide Terrorism workshop in December 2006 and has been asked to follow-up on this on several occasions recently including a presentation at the Royal College of Defence Studies [RCDS] and gave the keynote address at the MoD Police National Conference in March 2007 on the causes of Islamic extremism. In April 2007 he addressed the Royal Aeronautical Society Annual Conference on the Role of Space in War and also presented on the role of open source material in intelligence analysis in South Korea. This work has recently been accepted for publication by RUSI. He has been asked to give a keynote address at Fleet Headquarters in September 2007 at a dinner where he has been asked to cover the history of naval intelligence. He has also been asked to address the Police National CBRN Conference in October 2007 giving perspectives on suicide terrorism and its history. In October he will be giving one of the keynote addresses at the i2 Defence Conference in London and he will run a series of COIN Workshops in the course of the Conference. In December [2007] he will address the British International Studies Symposium at the University of Cambridge."[13]
