On 26 February 2026, SEDE hosts the European Defence Agency (EDA)'s Defence Industry Conference from 9.30 - 16.00hrs in the EP premises, bringing together representatives from industry, EU Member States and EU institutions.

The programme will include welcome addresses from the Chair of the Committee on Security and Defence (SEDE) and EDA leadership, followed by briefings on the Agency's engagement with industry, capability development activities and innovation initiatives. Two panel discussions will address cooperation and interoperability, and securing defence supply chains, bringing together perspectives from industry, Member States and EU institutions.
