Held under the patronage of HH Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani, Amir of the State of Qatar, DIMDEX 2024 is hosted and organised by the Qatar Armed Forces and will be organised under the theme: “Igniting the future of maritime security and beyond.”
The mega event is expanding its horizons by incorporating critical defence categories that bolster the safety and security of the maritime ecosystem. Thought leaders will seize the opportunity to delve into the latest developments reshaping the domain.
Since its inception in 2008, DIMDEX has witnessed continuous growth to become a staple event in the international maritime defence and security industry calendar.
Strategic Forum
In addition to the main exhibition, DIMDEX will host the Middle East Naval Commanders Conference (MENC), a highlight that attracts key leaders from around the world to discuss the latest trends, challenges and solutions in maritime defence and security.
MENC will be taking the helm on March 5, the second day of the maritime extravaganza. This thought-provoking event is open to the public for free, but don’t just show up on deck unannounced. Pre-registration is your passport to this exclusive gathering of minds.
MENC was first launched at the exhibition in 2008 and has since grown into a fixture of the event’s programme.
The exhibition will also feature the popular visiting warship display at Hamad Port, which will provide attendees an opportunity to explore modern naval warships. It will spotlight emerging technologies that include cybersecurity software, anti-piracy systems, artificial intelligence (AI), C5ISR systems and unmanned systems.
Global Cohesion
Staff Lieutenant General (Pilot) Salem bin Hamad bin Mohammed bin Aqeel Al Nabit, Chief of Staff of Qatar Armed Forces, said: “Qatar continues to enhance its defence capabilities and foster international strategic partnerships. In this context, DIMDEX contributes to the country’s National Vision 2030 and sustains the continued security and prosperity of the nation.
DIMDEX brings together key military and industry leaders from around the world to tackle the current challenges and threats, and explore the framework and solutions that enhance international maritime security and beyond. By hosting this international event, Qatar remains at the forefront of defence innovation and international cooperation in the pursuit of maritime security.”
