Defence events in São Paulo

Exposec is the dominant commercial gateway to the Latin American security technology market, drawing over 55,000 qualified buyers and specifiers from 40+ countries — making it the single most efficient venue for defence-adjacent suppliers (perimeter defence, UAS detection, C2, surveillance, cyber) to reach Brazilian and regional government, integrator, and enterprise procurement channels. The event's expanding 'new sectors' track — explicitly adding AI, cybersecurity, IoT, and connectivity — signals growing convergence with dual-use and public-safety defence applications. For SMEs and startups, the average of 400 qualified leads per exhibitor and the presence of decision-makers from public security agencies offers direct pipeline access unavailable at smaller regional events.

DroneShow Robotics is the dominant gateway event for the Latin American UAS and autonomous-systems market, attracting buyers and decision-makers from 40+ countries and drawing official participation from Brazil's key regulatory bodies (ANAC, DECEA, Ministry of Defense). For defence and dual-use suppliers, it offers direct access to a rapidly growing Brazilian and regional market projected to exceed US$9.8 billion in 2026, alongside structured business roundtables and co-location with geospatial, space, and eVTOL verticals. SMEs and startups benefit from a relatively accessible exhibitor model and a concentrated audience of procurement-ready professionals.

SpaceBR Show is the primary gateway for defence and dual-use suppliers seeking access to Brazil's growing space sector and the broader Latin American market, with institutional backing from the Ministry of Defence, FAB, DECEA, AEB, and ANAC providing direct procurement and regulatory engagement. The co-location of four simultaneous events under one roof creates a uniquely dense deal-making environment for SMEs and startups targeting geospatial, UAS, and space-enabled defence applications. With 12,000+ attendees from 40 countries and a 20% year-on-year growth trajectory, it offers unmatched regional reach for companies entering or expanding in South America.
