Symposium "PMRExpo meets Wehrtechnik"

The changed security situation in Europe requires the integration of civil and military protection tasks, as well as coordinated security solutions. Effective communication is crucial for civil-military cooperation, and the need for interoperable systems is particularly evident in communications infrastructure.

The symposium “PMRExpo meets Wehrtechnik” is therefore taking place for the first time on 25 and 26 November 2025, accompanying PMRExpo 2025 and the PMRExpo Summit. It is specifically dedicated to these challenges. PMRExpo is thus introducing a new format dedicated to technical and regulatory issues surrounding the military use of drones and aspects of cybersecurity, supporting exchange between the German Armed Forces, public safety organizations, and industry.

Among other thematic areas, the symposium deals with interoperable communications networks, crisis prevention and network resiliency in the event of area-wide failures, joint situation reporting and management support systems as well as the protection of critical networks through military expertise in the civil sector.
