50 Defense Companies to Watch at MSPO 2026
The buyer's guide to 50 defense companies worth watching at MSPO 2026, organized by category from drones and electronic warfare to robotics and space.
Not the biggest names. The ones worth a meeting.
Poland's Targi Kielce opens its newest hall this September for the 34th MSPO, and for the first time the show is fully sold out: close to a thousand exhibitors from 35 countries. Most of the headlines will go to the primes. This guide does not. It is built for buyers, partners, and journalists who want to know which smaller and mid-sized companies are actually worth a meeting.
We went through the official MSPO 2026 exhibitor list and picked 50 companies worth watching, organized into five categories: drones and autonomy, electronic warfare and cyber, optics and sensors, vehicles and protection, and robotics and space. One company leads each category as a spotlight: the one whose growth trajectory makes it worth watching most closely right now.
The full guide covers all 50 companies with what each one makes, where it's from, organized by category so you can jump straight to what's relevant to you.
