Shaping the Future of Defense Materials
Material performance isn’t just a parameter—it’s a strategic lever. The European Defense Materials Network (EDMN) is a consortium of specialized SMEs that delivers end-to-end agility — from material design and characterization to qualification and production.
Join our exclusive workshop to explore how this SME-driven approach is reshaping the defense materials landscape, closing capability gaps, and accelerating time-to-impact across land, air, sea, and space domains.
Workshop Highlights
- Keynote: Visionary insights from industry and research
- Two “Speed-Dating” rounds at six expert stations (EN/DE)
- Extensive networking opportunities
- Wrap-Up discussion
- Limited to 30 participants to ensure high-value interaction
