Offsets 2011

SMi`s Offsets 2011 is well timed to provide you with updates on the latest European and International offset programmes and policies. This conference will examine and explore the fluid relationship between government and industry concerning defence and security acquisition. Over the years offsets have become a crucial tool for winning offshore business and developing positive commercial co-operation and are set to grow into the future.

Over the next five years the defence industry could face offset obligations of up to $150 billion USD, a significant growth on the previous five, as countries all over the world look to compensate for diminishing defence budgets with increased offset thresholds. This conference will examine the evolution and increase in offset requirements in the global defence markets as buyers continue to seek ever greater returns on their investment.

Offsets 2011 brings together key senior policy and decision makers from around the globe. Attend the event and network with international speakers and attendees representing the key growth markets for future offset led acquisition.
