A chance to meet in real life. Throughout the year, the Coalition for Defense & Security South Korea joins trade missions and various trade shows.

Upcoming Events
South Korea Roadshow Trade Mission

From 17 - 19 April, the NIDV in collaboration with Gyeongnam Technopark is organising the 'Roadshow' trade mission in South Korea. South Korea has great interest in international cooperation in the field of Defence and Security. Moreover, the Gyeongsangnam-do region where the trade mission will take place is known for its quantity and high-quality defence industry.

As a member of the delegation, you will have the opportunity to meet industry leaders and policymakers during visits to industry and the Korean armed forces. In addition to these visits, you can also participate in the Seminar & Matchmaking in Changwon to discuss your opportunities in South Korea in more detail.

Members of the PIB South Korea cluster will participate in this trade mission, but even if you are not a PIB member, you can join the trade mission for a contribution of €750. Please note, travel and accommodation costs are at your own expense.

For more information about the opportunities offered by the Roadshow, please contact Peter Huis in 't Veld.
