DSEI Germany is a defense and security tradeshow, created to support government, military, and industry engagement during a period of fundamental change in European security. It brings together current and next-generation defense systems with structured information exchange and strategic dialogue across land, air, naval, cyber, information, space, and industrial domains within a single, purpose-built environment.
Supporting the German Ministry of Defence and the Bundeswehr, DSEI Germany aligns with national defense modernization priorities and contributes to wider NATO and European objectives. It's designed to support practical outcomes, including procurement understanding, capability alignment, and long-term cooperation across allied and partner nations.
Why attend?
As Europe’s largest economy and NATO’s second-largest defense spender, the country has committed to increasing defense expenditure to 5% of GDP.
Responding to these demands requires closer alignment between operational requirements, technology development, and industrial readiness. Cloud-based command and communication systems, autonomy, and artificial intelligence have already demonstrated operational value, while emerging areas such as quantum computing remain at an earlier stage of development.
