From September 2-3, 2025, a delegation of six Finnish companies attended the International Defense Industry Fair in Kielce. MSPO – a key event on the global defense industry map!
On Wednesday evening, September 3, 2025, the delegation met over dinner in Kazimierz, Krakow’s historic district, with NordicHouse representative Janusz Kahl, who is also the Finnish Consul in Southern Poland. During the dinner, they discussed NordicHouse’s collaboration in supporting companies already present in the Polish market – some even have production in Poland – and with companies interested in establishing operations in Poland.
The International Defense Industry Fair is one of the most important events in Europe and globally, aimed at representatives of the defense industry, military decision-makers, and industry experts. Held annually, MSPO brings together leading companies, institutions, and delegations from dozens of countries, offering a space to showcase the latest technologies, products, and solutions for defense and security.
It is an excellent platform for establishing important relationships for the global defense industry, culminating in the signing of multi-million contracts.
The event program includes conferences, debates, presentations, and numerous business meetings. For years, the Ministry of National Defense and the Polish Armaments Group, a strategic partner of the event, have been co-creators of MSPO’s success. The fair is traditionally accompanied by the Polish Armed Forces Exhibition.
The best products presented by MSPO exhibitors are recognized with prestigious DEFENDER awards. Additional special distinctions are awarded, including the Award of the President of the Republic of Poland, the Special Award of the Minister of National Defense, and the Special Award of the Minister of Development and Technology.
MSPO is an excellent platform for establishing new contacts, learning about innovations, and strengthening international security cooperation.
