Market Opportunity

Japan is strengthening its defence capabilities, expanding international partnerships, and investing in technologies to address evolving security priorities across the Indo-Pacific.

DSEI Japan provides Canadian defence and security companies with opportunities to engage Japanese government and industry stakeholders, explore supply chain partnerships, and position their capabilities within a growing regional defence market.

For Canadian companies seeking to establish or expand their presence in the Indo-Pacific, the event offers direct access to decision-makers, market intelligence, and international business development opportunities.
