IDEAS 2022 will focus on technical exchanges in the defense sector

Karachi:

The International Defense Exhibition and Symposium (IDEAS) will be launching its 11th edition at the Karachi Expo Centre from 15 to 18 November.

The four-day South Asia Leading event is organized annually by Defence Export Promotion. However, the exhibition took place after a four-year delay.

Since its inception in 2000, IDEAS – a platform that promotes cooperation and information exchange in the defense sector – has become an important activity for manufacturers of defense products, entrepreneurs, researchers, development and financial experts, and key policy makers.

This year, the exhibition will focus on technical exchanges and promotion, which will play an important role in strengthening the strategic ties between Pakistan and the international community, while also contributing to the common goal of global peace, stability and balance.

The last exhibition was held in 2018, with a total of 524 participating delegations from 45 countries, and more than 262 high-level delegations also attended.
