About UMEX and SIMTEX 2018
Building on the success of the first Unmanned Systems Exhibition and Conference 2015, launched during the International Defence Exhibition and Conference (IDEX), the Middle East region is ready to welcome a bigger and better UMEX show in 2018, with a broader scope which will include a Simulation and Training (SIMTEX) zone to reflect the growth and investment in the UAE and GCC countries.
UMEX and SIMTEX are ideally positioned to provide a professional platform for manufacturers to meet operators and establish lucrative business relationships while promoting the ecological, environmental, civil and humanitarian benefits of unmanned systems and military simulation and training.
