Shaping the Future of Defense Through Innovation

In a context where European defense is undergoing rapid transformation—driven by digitalization, artificial intelligence, and the growing need for technological sovereignty—Capgemini is uniquely positioned as a strategic partner to defense organizations. Leveraging deep expertise in digital transformation, data, and advanced technologies, Capgemini supports armed forces, governments, and industry players in accelerating innovation, strengthening resilience, and building the next generation of defense capabilities.

Against this backdrop, the INOVARMY Summit & Expo 2026 emerges as a key platform connecting the defense, innovation, and technology ecosystem in Portugal and across Europe.. 

About the Event

The INOVARMY Summit & Expo 2026, organized by the Portuguese Army in collaboration with leading institutional and industry partners, will take place on May 19–20, 2026, at Fórum Braga.

Under the theme “Human Capacity Development of the Land Force 2045,” the event aims to foster strategic dialogue and collaboration on the future of defense, bringing together national and international stakeholders from government, industry, academia, and research communities.

Our portfolio spans secure communications, embedded software, autonomous systems, artificial intelligence, and edge computing, enabling defense organizations to build resilient, interoperable, and technologically sovereign capabilities. 

At INOVARMY 2026, we will showcase demonstrators that embody this vision—integrating emerging technologies into real-world solutions for critical operations.
