Hello Megan,
Yes, all good with Frankfurt.
Ambiente Germany - 2024
DSEI 2027 will occur between the 7th and 10th of September 2027 in ExCeL London as a face-to-face event.
DSEI (DSEI London or DSEI UK) is a leading international trade show for the defence and security industry. It is the central innovation display hub for novel systems and technologies. This allows military personnel and experts to experience the latest technological advances. DSEI provides information about the whole value chain. The event is based in London and operates out of ExCeL London once every two years. DSEI UK presents novelties from the entire defence and security industry. Such include armaments, tactical gear, munition, and first aid equipment.
Because of its diversity, DSEI is the meeting location for tier 1 to 3 suppliers, defence ministers, service providers, pre-qualified industry visitors, manufacturers, system integrators, subcontractors, senior procurement staff, and prime contractors/OEMs. DSEI London is a high-profile event that receives over 35 000 attendees. For instance, one edition featured over 1 700 exhibitor firms and 36 000 visitants. 114 countries participated in the rendition. Among them were Australia, Finland, and the USA. The edition featured over 40 national pavilions and over 300 expert speakers.
The DSEI conference features a comprehensive support programme. Each edition operates under a specific theme. For instance, the central theme for one iteration was “Integrated Response to Future Threats”. This central theme influences the subjects selected for the Forums, seminar and keynote speeches. Among the main events is the detailed exhibition, where exhibitors present their latest products. This includes all levels of the supply chain, such as digital solutions and others. The DSEI exhibition grounds contain several Zones (Land, Naval, Security, Aerospace, and Joint) and Hubs (Space, Future Tech, Medical, and Manufacturing).
Each of the Zones features at least 60 categories. The Aerospace Zone, for instance, has over 100. It presents wares such as AI, missiles, flight simulators and others. The Land Zone is another exhibition zone. It features wares, like artillery, EOD, countermeasures, logistics, and body armour. The Naval Zone presents the latest naval vessels and technology. It includes a dockside section for live demonstrations of maritime capabilities and can contain additions such as visiting warships. The Security Zone presents equipment, strategies, technologies, and systems for countering high-priority threats such as terrorist attacks via its more than 60 categories. The Joint Zone displays products that can serve the entire Defence and Security Community via its over 100 categories. Such include sectors such as communications and defence infrastructure.
The Hubs serve as dedicated platforms for presenting different lead sectors. The Space Hub, for instance, displays the latest communication and space applications. The Future Tech Hub is the central location that unites Innovation, Cyber and Communication. It serves as the defence community's meeting place for discussing important subjects. The Medical Hub is the showcasing location for defence medical research and simulations. It contains a series of interactive stands and a demonstration area. Attendants can earn awards at the demonstration area by showing their medical abilities. The Manufacturing Hub is where UK newcomer manufacturers can network with the industry. This includes meeting with prime contractors. Among the services which receive a presentation in the area are consultancy services and hybrid manufacturing.
Each Zone contains a specialist Forum (Joint Forum, Naval Forum, Land Forum, and others). The Forums enable dialogues between attendees around the current edition's core themes. For instance, one edition focused on future operational requirements, skill retention, information exploitation and industry engagement. Similarly, each Hub contains a specialised Theatre focused on the core themes. For instance, the Manufacturing Theatre demonstrated the latest supply chain management developments via live demonstrations. The Medical Innovation Theatre also featured live demonstrations. Yet, the wares on display were related to the latest Operational Patient Care Pathway innovations. This includes future requirements for modern military healthcare systems.

Hi Megan,
I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say thank you for all your help in arranging the hotel and breakfasts etc.
The feed back from the team has also been positive from the hotel.
Looking forward to working with you again.
Have a lovely weekend.
Thanks
Dear Megan,
First of all, thank you for your service in short notice, obviously was my mistake for starting to search accommodation to late, but nevertheless you was on desired level of professionalism.
Regarding hotel, hotel as it is, was correct, but location in industrial zone, and lot of trucks which passing by windows was unpleasant experience, so I would not recommend this hotel for this price to no one, but I am aware of moment which we choose to make reservation in Cologne .
Regarding next IDS, it is a good idea, if we don’t have to pay nothing in advance, then yes, you can make some reservations for similar rates, but with location near city center or Koelnmesse.
Thanks once again, and stay in touch.
Kind regards,
Predrag Treskanica
