Kielce, Poland, September 8-11, 2026. The 34th International Defense Industry Exhibition MSPO is the largest defense trade fair in Central and Eastern Europe, and one of the three most important defense industry events in Europe, alongside Paris and London.

AltForm will be there.

MSPO: where the European defense industry does business

For over three decades, MSPO has brought together government officials, defense ministers, military delegations, and defense industry leaders in Kielce. The 2025 edition hosted more than 800 exhibitors from 35 countries and 42 official delegations from allied nations. Contracts worth billions of euros are signed on the show floor. It is not an event where you come to explore. It is where decisions get made.

The 2026 edition takes place at the Targi Kielce Exhibition and Congress Centre. The Polish defense market is one of the most active in Europe right now, with spending increases that are generating demand for advanced manufacturing capabilities across the supply chain.

Why metal additive manufacturing belongs at a defense show

Defense applications are among the most demanding contexts for metal AM: complex geometries that cannot be produced any other way, high-performance alloys that push the limits of conventional machining, small production volumes where tooling costs are prohibitive, and supply chain requirements that make in-house production capability strategically critical.

Powder Bed Fusion and Direct Energy Deposition are both relevant here. PBF for structural components, heat exchangers, and precision parts in titanium, Inconel, and aluminum alloys. DED for repair and refurbishment of high-value components, cladding, and the production of large-format parts where the build envelope of PBF systems is a constraint. AltForm’s portfolio covers both, with systems qualified for industrial serial production and open parameter architecture that supports the material and process development that defense qualification requires.

With NovaResk at Booth 2-C08

We will be present at the stand of NovaResk, our Polish distribution partner, at Booth 2-C08. An AltForm application expert will be on hand with a selection of components produced using our metal additive manufacturing technologies, ready to discuss specific application requirements and the capabilities of our PBF and DED systems.

NovaResk is our partner for the Polish market, a market that is currently at the center of European defense industry attention. Being present at MSPO with an established local partner is the right way to engage with this community.

If you are attending MSPO 2026, Booth 2-C08 is where to find us.
