The 2nd edition of the Greek International Defence and Security Exhibition (DEFEA 2023) will be held from May 9th to May 11th, 2023, at the Metropolitan Expo Centre located in Eleftherios Venizelos International Airport in Athens.
This year’s DEFEA 2023 international defence exhibition is focused on the Greek defence industry, which with 140 exhibitors presents its upgraded capabilities to support the Armed Forces while participating in co-productions and industrial partnerships, actively busting the overall development effort of the country.
As for the capabilities of the Hellenic Defence Industry, in light of DEFEA, the President of the Hellenic Manufacturers of Defense Materiel Association (SEKPY), Mr Tassos Rozolis emphasizes: “In recent years, the domestic defence industry has taken particularly important steps to recover what it lost during the difficult years of the economic crisis, and now it is presenting these steps and the capabilities it has recovered, at DEFEA 2023.
The domestic defence industry now focuses on a strong and healthy development with strong extroverted characteristics from which both the Greek defence companies and our country as a whole can benefit economically and geopolitically.
This exhibition constitutes an opportunity to implement many armament programmes to strengthen the Armed Forces’ deterrence capabilities”.
