Enforce Tac 2024: Still a key player in the industry

Enforce Tac, the exhibition for members of security agencies and the armed forces, is investing heavily in the visitor experience during the upcoming event from 26 to 28 February 2024, while maintaining a clear focus on internal and external security.

 

Enforce Tac bolsters commitment to security and cooperation: Scandinavian-German Defence Symposium launches at Enforce Tac 2024

The team headed by Exhibition Director Isabelle Teufert has announced another premiere for Enforce Tac 2024. “We keep a close eye on developments within the industry and adapt to new needs by developing pragmatic solutions,” explains Teufert. “In this case, we are focussing on international procurement processes, especially between Scandinavia and Germany, in line with the current increased procurement needs.”

Norway and Germany currently have one of the largest partnerships for defence and economic projects in Europe. At the same time, NATO is welcoming Sweden and Finland, which further strengthens the alliance. These developments are enough to underpin the thematic focus set for Enforce Tac 2024 in collaboration with initiators David Faller (Solid Ground) and Dr. Christian Wildhagen (Nordisk Konsult). In addition to Faller and Wildhagen, stakeholders from the German Armed Forces Planning Office, the International Chamber of Commerce Norway, MIDSEC Norge and the Federation of German Security and Defence Industries (BDSV) will also be in attendance. “The aim of the symposium is to promote and intensify closer relationships, provide insights into the future requirements of the armed forces, highlight challenges and explore opportunities for cooperation in procurement processes,” Teufert concludes, emphasising the central importance of the event and the Enforce Tac 2024 platform for the industry.

The highly specialized products and services offered by the 680 exhibitors already registered for 2024 (2023: 544) will be complemented by the multifaceted supporting programme at this year’s Enforce Tac. In addition to the Enforce Tac VILLAGE, Enforce Tac TV and the Enforce Tac BLACKBOX, Enforce Tac 2024 has a whole raft of high-quality items on its programme.

Meet & Greet with Dom from FLASHBANG Magazine

Published quarterly, FLASHBANG Magazine is known for showcasing exclusive and never-before-seen photos. While society tends to highlight its heroes through the sensationalism of film stars and athletes, the dangerous missions of our special forces around the world mostly take place out of the media spotlight and under the radar of society’s attention. Dom, author, photographer and editor of the magazine, will be available for a meet-and-greet throughout the event in the walkway area of Hall 7A.

“We want to offer our industry a suitable platform to develop promising prospects and jointly strengthen the internal and external security of Germany and Europe – with enough time for dialogue and sufficient space for the growing range of exhibitors,” Teufert asserts. “Of course, an exhibitor evening with good food, drinks and discussions is a must,” she concludes.
