Korea will hold the 12th Seoul International Aerospace and Defense Exhibition (ADEX) in October next year to showcase cutting edge defense and satellite technologies to defense contractors and military officials across the globe, organizers said Tuesday.
The ADEX will be held for a six-day run from Oct. 29 at the Korea International Exhibition Center (KINTEX) in Ilsan, just north of Seoul, organizers said at a briefing.
On the sideline of the biennial event, a large scale air show will be held at Cheongju International Airport, 137 kilometers south of Seoul, which is open to the public, they noted.
Organizers said about 330 exhibitors from 32 countries are expected to participate in the event to provide marketing opportunities for defense contractors and for diplomacy among military leaders on hand. (Yonhap)
