Baltic Trust 2026 (BATT26)
03 – 14 August 2026 | Riga, Latvia

Event Description:
Currently, NATO has advanced UAS and C-UAS technologies, but live, integrated tactical training is limited. Existing programs provide operational knowledge but rarely combine real-time UAS/C-UAS use with field exercises and command coordination.

This project addresses these gaps by training operators, testing system interoperability, and validating suppression tactics under realistic military conditions. Personnel gain hands-on experience, improve decision-making under stress, and learn to execute coordinated suppression missions. The initiative enhances NATO’s airspace security, rapid-response readiness, interoperability, and standardizes training and tactics across allied forces.

This event is a part of ACT’s Layered Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems Initiative (LCI-X) aims to enhance NATO’s defence capabilities by enabling experimental introduction of emerging Counter-UAS (C-UAS) technologies. LCI-X is designed to be complementary to Allies’ efforts to identify and iterate on detect and defend solutions against massed UAS incursions, bridging the gap between ongoing experimentation and long-cycle programmes, thereby informing long-term modernization of NATO’s integrated defence architecture.

MSPO 2026 is one of the largest and most significant defense industry exhibitions in Central and Eastern Europe. Held annually, this premier event attracts tens of thousands of visitors, official foreign delegations, and the world’s leading military equipment manufacturers.

Reflecting the strategic geopolitical position of Poland and the broader region, the exhibition showcases state-of-the-art solutions engineered to reinforce NATO allied capabilities across several core sectors:

• Heavy Military Equipment & Weapons Systems – Displaying advanced main battle tanks, armored fighting vehicles, artillery platforms, and missile launch systems.
• Air and Missile Defense – Showcasing modern anti-aircraft and anti-missile defense suites, radar systems, and early warning technologies.
• Logistics & Soldier Readiness – Providing tactical gear, field medicine solutions, communication assets, and transport innovations.
• Regional Cooperation – Serving as a vital platform for signing strategic procurement contracts and agreements between governments and the private defense sector.

MSPO 2026 delivers a unique venue to forge close ties with neighboring ministries of defense, military commanders, and industry partners, driving a unified mission to secure and fortify regional stability.

Eurosatory 2026 is the world’s leading land and air-land defense and security exhibition. Held biennially, it serves as the premier global gathering for defense industry giants, military commanders, and technological innovators from across the globe.

In response to the rapidly shifting global security landscape and operational lessons learned from recent conflicts, this year's exhibition and expert-led panels will focus heavily on the following critical domains:

• Land Forces Modernization – Showcasing cutting-edge armored vehicles, mobile artillery systems, and next-generation ammunition developments.
• Air Defense & Counter-UAS (C-UAS) Systems – Tactical solutions engineered for short-range airspace protection and the effective neutralization of combat drones.
• Autonomous & Robotic Systems – Displaying unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and artificial intelligence (AI) integration within battlefield command and control.
• Soldier Equipment & Protection – The latest advancements in advanced gear, night vision, tactical communications, and cybersecurity systems designed to maximize individual operator lethality and survivability.

Eurosatory 2026 delivers an unparalleled international platform facilitating official state delegation procurement, the establishment of strategic cross-border partnerships, and direct high-level engagements between defense industry leaders and key military decision-makers.

The Supply, Security & Defence Expo (SSD) 2026 is one of the premier defense and security exhibitions in the Baltic Sea region. It brings together government officials, industry leaders, and technological innovators with a shared mission: strengthening regional readiness and supply chain resilience.

In response to escalating geopolitical tensions in the Arctic and Baltic regions, the exhibition's conference program and live demonstrations will highlight four critical focus areas:

• Supply Chain Resilience – Strategic cooperation between the defense industry and the public sector to secure uninterrupted resource flows and protect critical infrastructure.
• Defense Innovations – Showcasing cutting-edge military technologies, counter-UAS (drone detection) systems, and integrated air defense solutions.
• Cybersecurity – Securing the digital battlespace and protecting critical command and control (C2) systems against hybrid and targeted cyber threats.
• Dual-Use Technologies – Driving synergy and practical deployment of dual-use technological solutions across both civil and military sectors.

SSD 2026 delivers a premier B2B platform facilitating direct engagements between procurement specialists, ministry of defense officials, military commanders, and private defense sector executives, aimed at forging long-term cross-border partnerships and reinforcing collective NATO security.

DAIMEX Baltic 2026 is the largest international defense and aerospace industry exhibition and business matchmaking event in the Baltic States, focused on manufacturing innovations, aerospace technologies, and cross-border strategic cooperation.

The exhibition and B2B sessions will showcase cutting-edge regional and international innovations across the following core sectors:

• Aerospace Industry Solutions – The latest advancements and technological components for modern aviation and space sectors.
• Defense Technologies & Innovations – Advanced systems, dual-use technologies, and their operational application.
• B2B Matchmaking Platform – Direct networking, supply chain synergy, and the establishment of strategic partnerships between Baltic and NATO defense manufacturers.

The event will host high-level defense and aerospace decision-makers, armed forces and institutional representatives, research and development (R&D) centers, investors, and leading industry experts from around the globe.

Defense Tech Valley 2025 is the second flagship investment summit hosted by Brave1. The event will gather more than 5,000 defense tech experts, military leaders, and Ukrainian and international investors – uniting all those shaping the future of defense innovation, not only in labs but directly for the battlefield.

Ukraine, where new technologies are designed and tested under real combat conditions every day, is rapidly emerging as a global leader in security innovation. This summit presents a unique opportunity to invest in battle-proven solutions already redefining the future of international security.

As part of the summit, the Battle Proven Competition will spotlight defense and dual-use startups. Ukrainian developers whose technologies are already deployed on the front lines – or expected to be introduced within the next year – are invited to apply.

Enforce Tac represents innovation, efficiency, and the exchange of expertise—all aimed at overcoming today’s and tomorrow’s challenges. Become part of this unique trade fair and actively contribute to shaping the future of internal and external security.

The NATO Energy Security Centre of Excellence (ENSEC COE) will host the international FORTE 2025 conference in Vilnius on 16–18 September 2025.
The event will spotlight NATO’s latest energy security initiatives:
– Operational Energy Concept (2024)
– Military Infrastructure Resilience Concept (2025)

Participants will include representatives of NATO bodies, defence sectors from member and partner nations, armed forces personnel, and experts from government institutions, academia and industry.

Baltic Viper will participate in the 33rd International Defence Industry Exhibition MSPO 2025, taking place on September 2–5 in Kielce, Poland.
MSPO is one of Europe’s key defence events, bringing together over 600 participants from around the world. We will showcase our latest technologies – the Viper V10 Optical drone, our advanced GCS control system, and last-mile tracking solutions designed for real-world missions.
