DefTech Day at the #SCCON25
Innovative technologies for the future of defense
The Russian invasion of Ukraine and the associated "turning point" have brought the expansion of military infrastructure in Germany into sharper focus. Modern armed forces require much more than traditional equipment like tanks and weapons; there is an increasing need to rely on innovative technologies and digital solutions to counter adversary forces.

At the DefTech Day, part of the Smart Country Convention 2025, we aim to rethink the modernization of the armed forces. Whether it's Software Defined Defense, Unmanned Systems, or Artificial Intelligence: Together with experts from business, politics, and the military, we will discuss topics such as startup funding, changes on the battlefield, and the procurement of public contracts.
When and where?
Date: September 30, starting at 2:00 PM
Location: On the Startup Stage in Hall 25
