High pricingmedium confidence
DSEI Germany 2027 is the inaugural German edition of the DSEI series, expanded to a fourth hall (100,000 sqm indoor plus 25,000 sqm outdoor) after early demand filled the original three halls.
- Numbers such as ~25,000+ visitors and ~900+ exhibitors are anticipated/third-party projections rather than confirmed post-show figures, as no edition has yet taken place.
- Confirmed exhibitors include naval and land primes such as TKMS, Kongsberg and Rafael, alongside numerous German SMEs and international pavilions.

Why it matters
As Germany's first fully integrated defence exhibition, launched amid the Zeitenwende and a defence budget projected to reach EUR 180 billion by 2030, DSEI Germany offers suppliers direct access to the German MoD, Bundeswehr, European procurement authorities and international delegations in a single venue.
- A dedicated Newcomer Zone for German SMEs and start-ups plus regional and international pavilions make it a strategic market-entry platform for smaller and non-German firms seeking early positioning in a rapidly expanding market.
- Exhibiting at the inaugural edition allows companies to establish an early foothold before the show scales further.

Annual Meeting of the Supply Chain
Lévis / Canada
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.
