This contact day is designed for companies active in unmanned systems, defence vehicle components or space applications. It offers selected participants the chance to learn how to become an NSPA supplier, get information on NATO procurement programmes, and speak directly with NSPA buyers.
The event is organised by Flanders Investment & Trade together with AWEX and hub.brussels.

The programme focuses on three areas:

  • intelligent autonomous unmanned systems
  • structures, components and protective materials for land and air vehicles
  • space for defence

NSPA supports 32 NATO member states and works with more than 60,000 companies worldwide across procurement programmes covering equipment, operational support and lifecycle management.

Participation is based on selection. Companies can apply through the registration form, and those selected by NSPA are expected to receive the full practical information and programme afterwards. A discount code for an overnight stay at the hotel at a reduced rate is also expected to be shared after registration.

The participation fee is €250 for the first participant and €100 for the second participant. Companies that are new to Flanders Investment & Trade may receive a 35% discount. The application deadline is 19 March 2026.

AENEAS – Innovative energy storage systems onboard vessels

Funded under Horizon Europe (HORIZON-CL5-2022-D5-01-02), running from 2023 to 2026, AENEAS advanced the development of innovative electric energy storage solutions tailored for waterborne transport. The project has also created tools & platforms to support the optimal integration of new energy storage systems into vessels, assess their impact on overall system efficiency, and quantify potential reductions in greenhouse gas emissions. The project consortium, led by Flanders Make, consists of 14 partners from 8 countries. Read more about the project in this testimonial.
