International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS) 2026 serves as Pakistan's flagship international defence exhibition platform, bringing together defence manufacturers, armed forces, government stakeholders, official delegations and industry professionals from around the world.
The show covers land systems, air systems, naval and maritime technologies, security and ISR, space systems, and cyber and emerging technologies. Its exhibition program is reinforced by spotlight events such as the inauguration ceremony, international defence seminar, gala dinner, B2B and B2G meetings, MoU signing ceremonies and exhibitor recognition activities.
Since its launch in 2000, IDEAS has evolved into a leading regional defence marketplace. The 2024 edition hosted 557 companies from 41 countries across 14,000 square meters of exhibition space, underlining the show's continued international reach and strategic relevance.
