Navy Tech & Seabed Defence 2027 will bring together naval leaders, defense stakeholders, engineers, scientists, and industry experts to examine the future of maritime and undersea operations.
Taking place from 2–4 February 2027 at the Swedish Exhibition & Congress Centre, Gothenburg, Sweden, the event addresses the rapidly evolving threat landscape facing naval forces worldwide, including uncrewed systems, anti-ship weapons, cyber attacks, electronic warfare, and threats targeting critical subsea infrastructure.
The 2027 edition introduces Seabed Defence, a dedicated focus on the protection of undersea infrastructure and offshore assets. As reliance on subsea communication cables, energy networks, and underwater military systems continues to grow, the event will explore the technologies, operational strategies, and security considerations required to safeguard these critical assets.
Across a three-day conference and tabletop exhibition, attendees will examine developments in digital integration, expeditionary design, multi-domain operations, cyber resilience, autonomous systems, and seabed security. The event provides a platform for military, government, research, and industry stakeholders to discuss capability development and future operational requirements across the naval domain.
