About the event
MSPO – A Strategic Platform for Global Defense Development
MSPO is the largest defense trade fair in Central and Eastern Europe, attracting military sector leaders from around the world for years. It is also a prestigious meeting platform for government representatives, defense ministers, military staff delegations, and embassies, serving as a key forum for security dialogue. The fair provides an excellent opportunity to establish international business relationships and explore trends shaping the future of the defense industry.
Showcasing the latest achievements of global defense leaders
MSPO is also the venue for world premieres and innovations that set the direction of modern defense development. Every September at Targi Kielce, the most advanced defense systems, military technologies, and defense projects are presented. Traditionally, the fair is accompanied by the Polish Armed Forces Exhibition.
The long-term success of the International Defense Industry Exhibition is co-created by the Ministry of National Defense and Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa – the Strategic Partner of the fair.
