History: from a Colombian exhibition to a regional hub of Latin America
Expodefensa’s first edition was held in 2009 at the CORFERIAS exhibition center in Bogotá, as part of the project of the Ministry of National Defense of Colombia to present the capabilities of its armed forces to key international players.
Since 2015, The MINDEFENSA (CODALTEC)-CORFERIAS-COGES alliance has developed Expodefensa, making it the main hub for Security and Defense in Latin America, where international exhibitors present their systems and products to respond to a growing regional demand. The aim of Expodefensa is to help governments and armed forces face their operational and capability challenges while playing a role in building a safer Latin America.
