(MENAFN- Gulf Times) Members of the organising committee of the Doha International Maritime Defence Exhibition and Conference (Dimdex) 2018 have attended the International Defence Industry Fair (IDEF), which is taking place in Istanbul, Turkey, until tomorrow.
The visit comes as part of the continuous preparations for the sixth edition of Dimdex next year.
A statement issued by the Directorate of Moral Guidance at the Qatar Armed Forces said attending IDEF is among the efforts undertaken to promote Dimdex and part of a series of official visits to international defence exhibitions.
The Dimdex delegation's 'presence at such established defence and security events worldwide plays a vital role in reinforcing the position of Dimdex and its importance in the naval and maritime security industry, the statement noted.
IDEF, being a renowned exhibition in the security and defence industry, is an important platform for Dimdex to attend and interact with official VIP delegations and key defence industry influencers face to face. It also enables the Dimdex committee to meet with the industry and key pavilion organisers to acquire first-hand knowledge of the designs and engineering advancements in the naval and security market.
During the show, the delegation took 'full advantage of the opportunity to invite Turkish companies for participation at Dimdex as the Turkey Pavilion has been one of the largest and most prominent international pavilions at Dimdex for the past several editions.
Staff Brigadier (SEA) Abdulbaqi Saleh al-Ansari, chairman of Dimdex, said: 'The organising committee of Dimdex will continue to visit similar international exhibitions to promote and raise our profile throughout the world. These visits enable us to stay updated on the latest maritime defence and security advancements and share expertise.
'Our visit concluded with positive outcomes; many companies have confirmed their participation in the upcoming edition of Dimdex, which will be held from March 12 to 14, 2018, in Doha. We would like to, once again, express our readiness to offer the best services and facilities to ensure that our exhibitors' and guests' objectives are being met and that they get the best outcomes at our prestigious events.
