Agenda Released for the 7th Social Media Within the Defence and Military Sector Event

London, United Kingdom, June 17, 2017 --(PR.com)-- Registration is now live for SMi’s 7th conference on Social Media within the Defence and Military Sector which takes place on 6th and 7th of December 2017 at the Copthorne Tara Hotel in London.
