New Delhi. Following the outbreak of Covid-19 across the globe, DEFEA – Defence Exhibition Athens, scheduled to be held at Athens in Greece from June 22-24 this year has been moved to May 11-13 next year.
“Even though DEFEA has not suffered any change in terms of either cancellations of participants or interest in the show, we believe that the concerns and difficulties of people and companies to travel would affect the overall quality of the event,” organisers of the exhibition noted.
“Therefore the DEFEA organisers in agreement with the Greek Ministry of Defence (MoD) and the Hellenic Manufacturers of Defence and Security Material Association (SEKPY) have taken the decision of postponing the DEFEA from June 2020 to the new dates in May 2021, from 11th to 13th, always in Athens, Greece,” the organisers said.
“Over the next few days further details of our May exhibition will be available on our website. We thank you in advance for your understanding and cooperation in this unprecedented situation,” the DEFEA organisers added.
