For the 25th Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI), ADS, the trade association for the UK’s aerospace, defence, security and space industries is hosting 180 organisations in the ADS Pavilion. Found in the North Hall, the sold-out ADS Pavilion spanning 7390 square feet is the second largest Country Pavilion present at the UK’s flagship defence and security event.

Organised by ADS, the Pavilion is home to a hub of innovative and agile defence and security organisations ranging from small to medium-sized companies (SMEs), mid-tiers, primes, academia and government bodies.

Among ADS’ 1600 strong membership base – of which 90% operate within the defence and security industries – 250 ADS members are exhibiting on the wider floorplate at DSEI 2025.

David Scotter, ADS Director for Events and Partnerships, said:

“The UK’s defence and security sectors form the bedrock of our nation’s security and are the enablers of economic prosperity. As you tour the ADS Pavilion, you will see why our members in these sectors are such sources of pride in our country – delivering over £60 billion in annual turnover and producing more than £25 billion in exports – cementing the UK as one of the largest global defence and security exporters.

This year’s DSEI couldn’t come at a more important moment. As countries around the world commit to bolstering their security efforts amidst the increasingly fragile landscape we operate in, the UK’s defence and security industries stands ready to partner with customers, suppliers and governments from across the globe to deliver a safer and more secure world.”
