SOFEX

SOFEX Aqaba 2026 serves as a premier international exhibition and conference dedicated to special operations forces and homeland security. This event offers a crucial platform for demonstrating and presenting advanced equipment and technologies designed to provide solutions for international Special Operations and Homeland Security decision-makers and armed forces. Its primary goal is to support global security and safety efforts.

The exhibition brings together experts, manufacturers, and suppliers from the global defense industry, facilitating connections with official governmental delegations and decision-makers worldwide. Exhibitors can leverage this opportunity to promote their branding to a broad international audience, develop and strengthen relationships, build trust, share best practices, and forge new partnerships. For the 2026 edition, a new exhibitor portal will introduce a sophisticated match-making program, enabling participants to coordinate strategic partnerships and direct-access meetings with investors, delegates, and suppliers before the event.

The target audience includes key figures such as Ministers of Defense, Chiefs of Staff, Special Operations Commanders, and defense procurement directorates, alongside military leaders, government officials, security agencies, and defense contractors. For the first time, SOFEX 2026 will be open to the public, with an Elite Badge option providing enhanced access for industry professionals.
