World Defense Show (WDS) has continued its strategic partnership with Saudi Arabian Military Industries (SAMI) ahead of the 2028 edition of the exhibition.
The partnership reinforces the relationship between WDS and SAMI as Saudi Arabia continues to develop its domestic defence industry and strengthen local defence capabilities.
SAMI’s involvement supports the exhibition’s focus on bringing together defence companies, government organisations and industry stakeholders while highlighting developments within Saudi Arabia’s defence and security sector.
The continued partnership also comes as preparations progress for the next edition of World Defense Show, scheduled to take place in Riyadh in 2028. The event is expected to provide a platform for defence companies and industry leaders to showcase technologies, develop partnerships and explore opportunities across the Saudi and wider international defence markets.
The collaboration between WDS and SAMI reflects the growing importance of Saudi Arabia’s defence industrial ecosystem and the role of major industry events in supporting industrial development, partnerships and technology cooperation.
