| Organiser | МЧС России (EMERCOM of Russia) / Правительство Республики Татарстан; operator: ООО «Международные конгрессы и выставки» | Naval Québec |
| Editionestimate | XVI edition (since 2008; first edition held at VVTs Moscow, May 2008) | Annual event; formerly held under AFCDC banner, rebranded to Naval Québec |
| Patronageestimate | Organised under auspices of МЧС России; co-organised with Government of Republic of Tatarstan; official partner: ПАО Сбербанк; general information partner: TV channel Zvezda | Regularly attended by federal ministers (Public Services & Procurement Canada); Government of Canada NSS announcements made at the event |
| Why it matters | As the flagship procurement and technology showcase of EMERCOM of Russia, the salon is the primary venue where Russian federal and regional authorities, state enterprises, and international emergency services evaluate and procure fire-rescue equipment, critical-infrastructure protection systems, and dual-use safety technologies. The 2026 edition's new regional rotation format and co-organisation with the Republic of Tatarstan opens access to Volga Federal District procurement networks and regional government buyers. For SMEs and startups in fire-tech, UAS, robotics, and CBRN protection, it is the most direct route to state customers and to international delegations from CIS, BRICS+, and partner countries. | This is the primary procurement-facing event for Quebec's naval supply chain, where federal ministers have used the platform to announce National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS) contracts and submarine procurement updates — making it a critical intelligence touchpoint for any company seeking Davie, Royal Canadian Navy, or Canadian Coast Guard business. With ~750 participants and ~65 exhibitors, it is compact enough for SMEs and startups to gain direct access to prime contractors such as Chantier Davie and Thales Canada. Pre-scheduled B2B meetings with national and international outsourcers give exhibitors a structured path to new contracts. |
