EUDEX G
IVEN THE UNPREDICTABLE NATURE OF THE GLOBAL SECURITY LANDSCAPE, INDUSTRIAL COMPANIES ARE INCORPORATING DEFENCE
ELEMENTS INTO THEIR STRATEGIC PLANNING AND HAVING TO EMBRACE THE RAPID RATE OF CHANGES IN TECHNOLOGY.
In short, the global security landscape is undergoing its
most profound transformation since the Cold War, driven by an urgent demand to bolster national resilience. That’s why the simultaneous staging of the inaugural EURO DEFENCE EXPO (EUDEX) and Security Essen is so signifi cant. The decision to bring military defence and civil security
together under one roof does more than simply bridge a historically fragmented sector, it represents a watershed moment for the European security and defence industries. It also creates a powerful, unifi ed platform that
addresses the realities of modern grey-zone confl icts, fosters vital civil-military collaboration, and accelerates the integration of next-generation commercial technologies into national defence frameworks. Oliver P. Kuhrt, CEO of Messe Essen, insists the economic implications of these developments are clear. “Germany still tends to discuss defence primarily in political terms – but in reality, we are currently witnessing a profound industrial shift,” he says. “Anyone talking about the future of industry today cannot ignore this topic. Behind it lies enormous momentum for innovation, investment, and employment.
Parting shot: the importance of bringing military and civil security together
DEMAND FOR SECURITY AND DEFENCE TECHNOLOGIES IS GROWING FASTER THAN IT HAS FOR YEARS. THIS IS NO LONGER BENEFITING ONLY TRADITIONAL DEFENCE COMPANIES - SMES AND TECHNOLOGY PROVIDERS ARE ALSO OPENING UP NEW MARKETS
