The Sixth Edition of the Middle East Special Operations Commanders Conference (MESOC) was held at the Le Royal Hotel in Amman, Jordan on May 7th.  

MESOC was held held under the very prestigious patronage of His Majesty King Abdullah II of Jordan and supported by the Jordanian Joint Special Operations Command. MESOC gathered official delegations and key decision makers to discuss the evolution of the role of Special Forces and learn from the wide range of experiences.

The Sixth edition of MESOC looked at the evolving sophistication of threats and challenges faced by modern day Special Operations Forces. Furthermore budget cuts and the increased scope of operations all helped to unite the diverse line up of world renowned speakers and members of the audience.

MESOC  was  a one day high level conference which started the Special Operations Forces Exhibition and Conference (SOFEX) week. Commercial parteners Booz Allen and Hamilton, Volga Dnepr Airlines, Goodrich and Oshkosh Defense were all instrumental to the success of MESOC.
