Siemens Technology Forum for the Edge Group

Engineering the Future of Defence Innovation

Date: 16 September 2026 | 08.30 AM - 2.00 PM
Venue: Hilton Abu Dhabi Yas Island

A focused technology forum designed for EDGE Group engineering teams, exploring how advanced simulation, digital engineering and connected workflows can support faster, more confident decisions across complex defense programs.

Through expert presentations, industry insights and interactive discussions, Siemens will share practical approaches to improving collaboration, reducing development risk and connecting engineering decisions across the product lifecycle.

Why attend?

When engineering decisions are made late, complexity increases. When teams work in silos, risk increases. When data is disconnected, innovation slows down.

This forum will focus on how digital technologies can help engineering teams address these challenges earlier, from concept and simulation to systems engineering, lifecycle management and engineering-to-manufacturing integration.

Participants will gain practical insights, real-world examples and technical perspectives on how to accelerate product development, improve decision-making and build more connected engineering processes for the future of defense innovation.

Attendance is limited to invited participants from across The EDGE Group to encourage focused discussion and peer-to-peer exchange.
