Defence Manufacturing & Materials Expo 2027 to Bring Together Europe’s Defence Industry Leaders in Poland
The Defence Manufacturing & Materials Expo (DMME) 2027 is set to establish itself as one of Europe’s leading dedicated platforms for defence manufacturing, industrial innovation, and strategic supply chain collaboration. Scheduled for April 28–29, 2027, at the International Congress Centre (MCK) in Katowice, Poland, the two-day exhibition and conference will bring together defence manufacturers, original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), technology providers, procurement professionals, and industry decision-makers.
As European nations accelerate defence modernisation, expand industrial production, and strengthen supply chain resilience, DMME 2027 will provide a focused business-to-business environment for exploring the technologies, products, and services supporting the next generation of defence capabilities.
The exhibition will showcase solutions across advanced materials, precision engineering, additive manufacturing, munitions and propulsion, defence electronics, autonomous systems, industrial automation, and testing technologies. Particular emphasis will be placed on the manufacturing processes, specialist components, and emerging technologies enabling defence organisations to increase production capacity, improve operational capabilities, and respond to evolving requirements.
Why Attend DMME 2027?
As investment in European defence continues to grow, the industry is facing an increasing demand for innovative technologies, advanced manufacturing capabilities, and reliable supply chain solutions. DMME 2027 will provide attendees with the opportunity to discover emerging solutions and explore the products and services powering the modernisation of the defence industry.
Bringing together established defence contractors, specialist manufacturers, technology developers, and industry experts, the exhibition will provide a valuable opportunity to understand the latest developments in defence production and identify solutions to evolving industrial challenges. From advanced materials and precision components to automation, additive manufacturing, and next-generation electronics, attendees will be able to explore technologies supporting more efficient, resilient, and scalable defence manufacturing.
The exhibition will also create opportunities to engage directly with manufacturers and solution providers, compare capabilities, discuss specific requirements, and identify potential suppliers and industrial partners. For procurement professionals, engineers, manufacturing specialists, and decision-makers, DMME 2027 will offer a focused environment in which to discover new capabilities, exchange technical knowledge, and explore opportunities for future collaboration.
Located in Katowice, at the heart of Central Europe’s industrial landscape, DMME 2027 will bring together businesses and professionals connected to defence supply chains across Poland, Central and Eastern Europe, Ukraine, and wider European markets.
With European nations placing increasing emphasis on domestic manufacturing capacity, technological sovereignty, and secure industrial supply chains, DMME 2027 will provide a meeting point for the organisations, technologies, and expertise shaping the future of European defence production.
Defence manufacturers, procurement professionals, engineers, and industry decision-makers are encouraged to register their interest and discover the solutions and capabilities driving the next phase of defence industrial development.
