The European Defence Innovation Forum (EDIF) is Europe’s leading platform where combat-tested innovation meets capital and policy. The second edition, to be held in The Hague, will bring together key voices in defence innovation from the Netherlands, Ukraine, and other partner nations.
Role Security Delta (HSD)
Together, HSD and EDIF share a common belief that the most impactful solutions come from collaboration. Europe's security depends on stronger cooperation across defence, technology, government, and academia, and platforms that connect the right people and ideas matter more than ever.
We look forward to building meaningful connections that turn innovation into real-world impact.
