The Ministry of National Defence will organize other conferences and events, highlighting the geopolitical aspects of DEFEA. At the same time, the General Directorate of Defence Investments and Armaments, with its participation, will take advantage of the possibilities of international cooperation with the participating countries and industries.
We should not miss the participation of the Ministry of Merchant Marine, which has also placed DEFEA under its auspices.
The General Staffs of the Hellenic Armed Forces will have a special presence in the exhibition and among other things, will present their training capabilities and especially the international joint exercises with friendly and allied countries. These exercises are focused on the high standards of the Hellenic Armed Forces as well as the opportunities provided by the terrain of Greece.
At the same time, the Hellenic Police as well as the Hellenic Coast Guard will present in DEFEA, both their important work on the security of the citizens and their contribution in the complex task of border protection in land and sea.
The Hellenic Defence Industry will be at the center of DEFEA, with 97 state owned and private industries among the total of the 312 exhibitors.
These are industries, some of which are more than a century old, whose contribution to the national defence system is invaluable.
