The Land Zone will contain the Land Seminar, which will feature presentations including keynote addresses from UK Ministers and MOD Service Chiefs.

There will also be a static display showcasing the latest vehicles brought by collaborations from prime companies, SMEs and manufacturers.

Likewise, the Naval Zone will also feature presentations including keynote addresses from First Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Staff and a naval static display.

The Security Zone will host keynote addresses from the National Security Adviser. Subjects covered will include Cyber Defence and Security, Counter Terrorism and Improvised Threats, Security in Complex Environments as well as Security Industry Engagement.

Grant Burgham, DSEI Event Director said: “DSEI 2019 will not only be the biggest edition to date – with more exhibiting companies from outside ‘traditional’ defence and new international pavilions – but the most comprehensive. There will be even more to see and do, with debut features, content and demos.”
