"On behalf of Clarion Defence and Security and Kallman Worldwide we would like to warmly welcome you all to DSEI 2023. We are delighted to have such a significant U.S. and Canadian presence here at the event."
DSEI Director Grant Burgham & Tom Kallman, President and CEO of Kallman Worldwide, Inc.
The close partnership between DSEI and the Kallman team makes it possible for North American companies to make the most of this truly global show. The U.S. and Canadian Pavilions combined are twice the size they were at DSEI 2021, proving the appetite of companies from North America to exhibit at the show. In the USA Partnership Pavilion – the largest international contingent, you can visit over 201 exhibitors with 73 of those new to the show. 35 U.S. states will be represented showing a national spread and reinforcing the broad appeal of DSEI across the American market.
Companies from across the defence landscape will be present, from the largest North American prime manufacturers such as Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman and L3 Harris all the way to the smallest SMEs.
On day three of the show there will be a fascinating session in the International Business Forum on the USA's procurement forecast. This is where U.S. Government officials will share their upcoming funding plans for defence programmes and the roadmap for the $966 billion investment to acquire new capabilities and build on national and global security priorities.
The Canadian pavilion is being organised in close concert with the Canadian national association CADSI. There are more than 35 exhibitors in the Canada Pavilion, 17 of which are new to DSEI.
The strength of our cross-Atlantic relationship is more important than ever and DSEI provides a fantastic platform for governments, the defence industry and military personnel to exchange ideas and discuss business.
The USA Partnership Pavilion will hold an Opening Ceremony at 11.00am on the morning of Day one of the show. The Ceremony will be attended by the official U.S. Government Delegation and U.S. Ambassador Jane Hartley, who will give brief remarks followed by a ceremonial ribbon cutting.
