About the exhibition

The NEDS exhibition, which stands for the Netherlands Exhibition on Defence and Security, takes place annually in November in Rotterdam. The event is organized by NIDV, the Netherlands Defence and Security Industry Association, which plays a key role in the development of this sector in the Netherlands. This exclusive event is the largest of its kind in the Benelux region and serves as a central platform for meetings between industry representatives and government officials working in defence and security technologies. Over the years, NEDS has built an excellent reputation and has become a platform for showcasing new technologies, discussing innovations, and presenting future trends in the industry. The exhibition covers a wide range of topics and products, from military equipment and weapon systems to cybersecurity solutions and advanced defence technologies. One of the main advantages of NEDS is the opportunity for companies and organizations to present their latest products and services to a broad and knowledgeable audience, providing a unique chance for interaction with potential clients and partners. The venue, Ahoy Rotterdam, is a modern and multifunctional congress center known for its excellent infrastructure. It creates ideal conditions for an event of this scale, offering ample space for exhibitions, conferences, and networking events. Overall, NEDS is an indispensable event for anyone involved in the defence and security industry in the Benelux region and beyond. It is a unique platform for knowledge exchange, fostering innovation, and strengthening business relationships. Join us and be part of this important event!
