SEKPY continues to dynamically promote the interests of the Defense sector beyond borders, having already organized national pavilions at some of the most significant international defense and security exhibitions, such as EUROSATORY in France and AUSA in the USA. Additionally, our own DEFEA exhibition in Athens, with SEKPY as a co-organizer, has been established, which is expected to take place from 6th to 8th May 2025.

This year in February, it is worth noting that the DEFEA Conference was held, following the organization of the high-profile event “SHAPING THE FUTURE OF HELLENIC DEFENCE INDUSTRY: Unveiling the Future of Defence with Greek Innovation” in collaboration with the Hellenic Network Argo in Brussels, at the event hall of RESIDENCE PALACE in Brussels, an initiative expected to be repeated in 2025.

SEKPY acts as a supporter in enhancing the extroversion of the defense sector, strengthening networking among Greek companies and international markets, and promoting collaboration and the exchange of expertise. With its support, the Greek defense sector gains greater visibility and presence on the international stage, thus empowering Greece’s position in the field of security and defense.”
