Government-funded business delegation
Philippines: Business opportunities in security & defence
Five days for German companies: in-depth market insights, relevant contacts and individually prepared meetings with potential partners and decision-makers in Manila.
Philippines: Market & business opportunities.
The Philippine security and defence sector is undergoing extensive modernisation, driven by the security situation in the South China Sea, growing cyber threats and the island nation’s exposure to natural disasters.
There is demand for modern solutions in maritime security, cybersecurity and critical infrastructure protection, disaster response, C4ISR and situational awareness, as well as training and capacity building.
With a defence budget of USD 4.57 billion in 2025 and long-term procurement and modernisation programmes, the market offers tangible opportunities for German technology providers and specialist service companies.
