Programme 2024
Exhibition hours are from 8.00 - 17.30. During the day you have the opportunity to meet industry leaders, governement representatives, and international delegations. Like previous years, the NEDS is a good opportunity to confirm agreements with an official signing. Several exhibitors have informed us about their signing ceremonies. You can find them in our progamme; see below this page.
