About
Us
ISDEF’s Key Capabilities:
Israel’s status as a leading provider of defence and security systems in the global market,
coupled with ISDEF’s position as the premier international exhibition in Israel, provides exhibitors
with the ability to enter the Israeli market, maintain local relationships, form joint-ventures and
create third market opportunities. Israeli Companies are important end-users are involved in
100’s of projects throughout the world. This makes ISDEF’s international market opportunity a
very effective business platform, no less than the domestic market. Companies that participate
at ISDEF are more likely to be considered for projects and win compared to companies that
do not make a presence. Exhibitors are granted access to end-users and key decision makers
that would otherwise be nearly impossible to reach. These benefits are further enhanced for
SMEs [international & local]- whom generally do not have the means to travel abroad promoting
their products - giving them the advantage to generate business, increase exports and establish
presence in the global market.
What to Expect:
The 7th edition of ISDEF is to take place June 2-4, 2015. With an expected 250 exhibiting
companies, among them small to medium size enterprises as well as major contractors from the
Defence and HLS sector and 12,000 visitors from more than 90 nations, ISDEF will maintain its
position as the largest defence and security exhibition in Israel and the only international trade
show for the defence and security industry. Foreign companies will constitute nearly 50% of the
exhibitors and more than 85% of attendees have buying power. Decision makers from around the
world; including Ministers of Defence, Chiefs of Staff, Chiefs of Police, Ministers of Interior and
technical officers who are responsible for testing products attend ISDEF. ISDEF 2015 will include
National Pavilions, an SME zone, industry workshops and live demonstrations. Interoperability
will be among the focuses at ISDEF 2015. Due to the complexity of the region, the sharing of
expertise and knowledge is imperative in addressing future threats on a global level. Participation
of civil and military officials at the decision-making level is essential as the strategic environment
at ISDEF depends on strong cooperation with allies and partners.
Our Goals:
Are to maintain and further ISDEF’s effectivity as a business platform, a strategic environment
for international cooperation and dialogue and to ensure that end users are exposed to more of
the latest technological innovations, products and systems that could be implemented and used
in an operational capacity.
ISDEF is the premier
international defence and
security exhibition in Israel.
Since 2007, ISDEF has
catered to the needs of
the Military, Police, Special
Forces and Homeland
Security Organizations by
exposing them to the products
and solutions provided by
innovative defence and
security companies. The 7th
edition of ISDEF will take
place June 2-4, 2015 in hall

Convention Center.

THE 7TH INTERNATIONAL DEFENCE & HLS EXPO
7. INDUSTRIAL COOPERATION:
The majority of the global defence industry is comprised of SME’s, which
play a pivotal role in the economic development of countries worldwide
because of their innovative capabilities, flexibility, and lower costs.
ISDEF provides a platform for foreign companies to enter the Israeli
market and form alliances defined by joint ventures and industrial
cooperation that fulfil the demands of end users in Israel and also
account for 3rd market opportunities.
THE ISRAELI MARKET:
Defence and security in Israel are more than just exportable commodities, they are of
national priority. Foreign companies have an array of market opportunities in Israel which
range from Homeland Security applications to Defence systems. ISDEF is the only
international exhibition in which technical and field officers from the IDF attend. These
officers are a crucial part of the acquisition process in the IDF. ISDEF provides them with
exposure to a wide array of international companies and the opportunity to meet with the
manufacturer, maximizing business potential for the exhibiting company.
GainAccess to
3RD MARKET OPPORTUNITIES:
Third market access and new-to-market opportunities derived from
participating at ISDEF are inherent. 3rd market opportunities for companies
are the result of the large number of foreign attendees and cooperation with
companies who are working on projects abroad and seeking partners and
suppliers. In 2013, ISDEF had visitors from 93 nations, 74 foreign delegations,
33 from the private sector and 41 official delegations. Exhibiting companies
represented 14 countries and the overall international attendance was 1,500.
86% of all attendees have buying power-making ISDEF a significant event
for business on a global scale.
END USERS AND DECISION MAKERS:

strategic developments of the region and highlights the
defence & security industry’s ability to adapt to new
challenges and provide effective solutions that meet the
requirements of end users. Significant opportunities
exist for manufactures to interact with potential clients,
generate business and form relationships with key
decision makers. Exhibitors have full exposure to
Israeli end users, manufacturers, foreign delegations
