Presenting state-of-the-art technology and industry innovations, AAD connects a captive marketplace of global investors, government representatives, international defence and security delegations, Ministers, Chiefs, Captains and other arms of the Military.While the 11th edition of #AAD2022 will remain aligned to core audience industries, expanding its relevancy to ancillary sectors such as research establishments, the security industry, firefighting, humanitarian organisations, transport and mining, AAD 2022 will enable co-operative innovations, technologies and investments across a number of sectors with shared security challenges and threats.
