DSEI 2023

INTRODUCTION

Held at the easy to access ExCel exhibition centre every two years SMI has secured space in DSEI’s Naval Zone to support member companies.  The Naval Zone at DSEI is an interactive showcase of the latest vessels and technology.  Buyers, procurement managers visit the show looking for new technology and solutions for their projects.  The Naval Zone is the focussed maritime defence area within the exhibition.

DSEI connects governments, national armed forces, industry thought leaders and the entire defence & security supply chain on a global scale.

THE SMI GROUP AT DSEI 2023

SMI is organising and managing a shared space in the focussed Naval Zone of DSEI. The advantages of joining the UK Group are:

• SMI as the group organiser, deals directly with the exhibition organisers, co-ordinates payments, appoints agents and stand contractors, briefs the exhibitors, etc.
• Participants exhibit in a shared stand environment which will attract visitors and international delegations.  The benefits of joining a shared stand:
  • You will meet visitors from the other stand exhibitors
  • Increased traffic from combined social media activity
  • Learning and insight from stand networking
  • Ability to minimally resource the show reducing hotel and T&S costs i.e. no build up day, walk the show knowing the SMI can call you back if you have a visitor.
• Invitation to the DSEI & London International Shipping Week event on the Monday night.  In 2021 we were able to host this on HMS Albion moored off Greenwich.
• We will be a focal point of interest for international naval delegations
• Exhibitors networking reception – planned at the end of each day.
