SOFEX stands as a premier meeting point for special operations and homeland security communities. Government delegations, decision-makers, and critical suppliers convene under one roof to address a rapidly evolving threat landscape with fast, precise, and effective solutions, fostering interoperability, readiness, and cross-border cooperation.

The programme blends high-level seminars, B2B meetings, official delegations, and an expansive exhibition floor. Attendees examine the latest across ISR and surveillance, C4ISR architectures, electronic warfare, armoured and MRAP platforms, unmanned air/land/maritime systems, border security, coastal surveillance, and counter-terrorism—complemented by live demonstrations and technical briefings that accelerate procurement decisions.

Powered by the Aqaba Special Economic Zone, the event benefits from a pro-investment, duty-free environment that enables procurement, localisation, and co-production models. This ecosystem unlocks international partnerships, offsets, and technology transfer, efficiently aligning end-user requirements with industrial capabilities—positioning SOFEX as a strategic bridge for sustainable collaboration between security institutions and industry.
