I am confident that the next edition of the Prague international defence exhibition will highlight the current and future trends in defence and security, follow up on the undeniable success of the previous projects and once again offer a venue for the community comprising leading experts from NATO nations and EU member states and other partners for defence and security, defence and security industry leaders, the military and researchers to come together.

Mr. Martin STROPNICKÝ

Minister of Defence of the Czech Republic

Thanks to the project, Prague became one of the hubs for representatives of the international security community – businesses, military, politicians and experts – to meet and interact on high specialist level. The military always benefit from such collaborative efforts, no matter whether they generate improved weapon systems, communications, surveillance technology, new camouflage systems, ballistic protection, defence against weapons of mass destruction, medical equipment or seemingly simple, but indispensable and perfectly functional buckles on our harness.

GEN Petr PAVEL, M.A.

Chairman of the Military Committee, NATO

From the international perspective, the Future Forces exhibition represents a unique opportunity to obtain latest information on future trends, technologies, materials, innovations in future armaments and equipment, interoperability of military, security and Special Forces and services.

Mr. Tomáš KUCHTA

Deputy Minister of Defence of the Czech Republic

NATO, the recent sponsoring committee of NATO national experts (AC/301), and the individual nations who hosted the very successful exhibitions on Combat Clothing and Individual Equipment (CCIE) over the past seven years have expressed their sincere appreciation for the professional way that International Coordination Centre undertook and very successfully discharged this technical and politically high profile NATO task.

Defence Investment Division, Armaments Planning, Programme and Policy Directorate, NATO HQ

Your long-standing effort, for more than a decade, organising CCIE, CCIEP and FUTURE SOLDIER exhibitions is both highly-valued and recognised by soldier system experts. Your International Coordination Centre has undoubtedly secured a solid position for further FUTURE SOLDIER Exhibitions within the soldier system community.

Head JAIS (Joint Armaments and Industry Section), NATO HQ

FUTURE FORCES is an excellent venue for sharing technology updates and information amongst the members of the military, academia and industry. The exposition brings together subject matter experts from across a broad range of disciplines in an environment conducive to broadening comraderies and relationships.

On behalf of the Danish Quartermasters Branch it is a pleasure for me to express my appreciation for doing a great job by arranging CCIE Exhibition 2003. Anything was very well organized and we hope that all other countries got the same good benefits as Denmark did.

Expert Delegation, Denmark

Let me express my sincere gratitude for your contribution to organisation of the EMPA Congress in Prague in conjunction with the Future Soldier Exhibition & Conference (FSEC). I believe our cooperation has already proven to be a success. Let me assure you that the EMPA‘s members will always remember this past congress as well as our cooperation with the FSEC with great satisfaction. During this congress EMPA‘s members had an excellent opportunity to see and learn new and useful things. I consider this type of a conference very important both to us – the representatives of military mass media as well as to businessmen and government officials.
