Dual-use and the defence industry - partnerships for resilience

15:30- 16:30, Sala wystawiennicza

Technologies and products can serve both the civilian economy and security needs simultaneously, the core concept of dual-use. For border regions, this represents not only an answer to emerging threats, but also a major opportunity to develop enterprise, new technologies, and high-quality jobs.

Key Topics:

  • Which dual-use technologies could become new smart specialisations for regional economies?
  • How to integrate local SMEs into defence supply chains?
  • How can civilian companies adapt their technologies and production lines to meet security market requirements?
  • How to leverage R&D support and European funds to scale dual-use projects?

Why Attend?

  • Dedicated to entrepreneurs in tech, engineering, and IT sectors, as well as industrial clusters and researchers developing dual-use solutions.
