Last week, we had the honor of attending Eurosatory 2024 in Paris for the first time, and the experience was truly impressive in every way. We were thrilled to receive an invitation and spent two days, Monday and Tuesday, immersing ourselves in the wealth of offerings the event had to offer.

Eurosatory proved to be a massive and diverse gathering, where we met representatives from various countries and explored their innovative offerings. Particularly memorable were the various types of ammunition, bombs, rockets, and missiles, along with detailed cross-sectional models showcasing their inner workings. It was fascinating to witness the latest developments and technological advancements in the industry.

One of the highlights of the event was Patria's unveiling of their new infantry fighting vehicle concept, which we had the privilege of seeing among the first. It was a testament to Finnish expertise and innovation, integral to the European defense industry.

It was also interesting to see several companies specializing in EOD (Explosive Ordnance Disposal) and mine clearance, showcasing their latest technologies and equipment. This further underscored the event's diversity and the opportunities it provided for experts in the field to meet and network.

Networking at the event was an invaluable experience. The conversations we had and the new contacts we made are valuable additions to our company's networks and future opportunities. Such events truly highlight the importance of international cooperation and lay the groundwork for future collaboration opportunities.

We are grateful for the opportunity to participate in this prestigious event and look forward to the future possibilities it may bring us.
