Welcome to ISDEF 2022, the 11^th Edition of Israel’s largest international HLS, defense, and cyber exhibition!

Everyone, individuals, and businesses worldwide, including our industries, have went through two difficult and intense years with COVID-19 and the impact it has had on peace and security across the globe. It has compounded geopolitical and security challenges, undermined social cohesion, fueled unrests, and empowered conflicts.

Globally, COVID-19 has made it difficult to maintain a secure defense and keep economies afloat. It is the responsibility of those in our fields to keep people safe, to be aware of upcoming threats, both internal and external, and to fulfill our commitments to public safety and homeland security. We all have technology that serves different purposes; the world will become a better, more unified place when we merge, share, and combine our capabilities.

The centralized arena of ISDEF will provide guests with an exclusive platform where they can be introduced to, and discover, advanced technologies, strategies, and information on how to safeguard borders and ensure public safety.

Additionally, now is the time for us to cooperate on global security, to coordinate between civilian and military organizations, and most particularly, on collaboration between governments, military forces, police, and municipalities, to preserve stability during regional, national, and/or international crises.

This year, our first ever international conference that, due to recent events along with a pandemic, will cover the topic of Crisis Management Conference. It will include debates and discourse on decision-making, selection of tools, acquisition of vital knowledge, and exposure to various methodologies needed to face and overcome an assortment of emergencies.

ISDEF is the place for exhibitors, startups, well-established tech companies, strong defense companies, and more, to showcase and expound on new and innovative ideas they’d like to present to the worldwide market.

My team and I welcome you to the commencement of ISDEF 2022 – the right people, the right place, the right time – for everything defense, HLS, and cyber.

Mati Weinberg
CEO of ISDEF
