FEINDEF 2023 Defence & Security Brokerage Event

FEINDEF 2023 Defence & Security Brokerage Event

An international meetingpoint for the Defence and Security industry!

This matchmaking event brings together SMEs, larger companies, government officials, research centers and other relevant institutions from the sectors of Defence and Security in a large number of European countries. This is a unique opportunity to generate new business or strategic contacts and foster technological cooperation in such a specific field of activity.

During this Brokerage, meetings will take place in a dedicated area in IFEMA and will be arranged in advance by means of this website. Participants will be given the possibility to arrange online meetings in order to foster international cooperation amongst key players.

The Brokerage Event FEINDEF 2023 will be celebrated in the framework of the FEINDEF Conference which will take place on the 17th, 18th and 19th of May 2023 in IFEMA Madrid (Spain).
