In a world where security challenges have become paramount, French companies specialising in this sector must constantly innovate and expand internationally to remain competitive. This is precisely the goal of the French Security Days, an international initiative designed to promote French expertise in security and defense. Organised by Business France in partnership with Milipol Paris, these events offer a unique opportunity for companies in the sector to connect with key stakeholders and strengthen their presence in international markets.

A Global Security Initiative

 

The French Security Days provide a platform for French companies to showcase their solutions to decision-makers in foreign markets. Whether in surveillance equipment, cybersecurity, protection systems, or intervention solutions, these meetings are designed to foster exchanges between French industry leaders and local partners, both institutional and private.

Business France, the national agency responsible for the international development of French businesses, plays a central role in this initiative. With its expertise and global network, it provides participants with strategic insights into local needs and market entry conditions. By collaborating with Milipol Paris, the world’s leading security event, this initiative benefits from strong industry recognition and attracts high-level participants.

 

Why Participate in the French Security Days?

 

For French companies in the security sector, the French Security Days are much more than just a commercial development tool. They offer privileged access to strategic markets, a better understanding of local public entities buying processes, and the opportunity to build trust-based relationships with local decision-makers, authorities, businesses, and commercial partners.

Understanding the expectations of institutional and private stakeholders in a country is crucial for adapting offerings and maximising export success. These events also facilitate the establishment of industrial and commercial partnerships, which are often essential for responding to international invitation to tender.

For Milipol Paris, being a partner of the French Security Days reinforces its role as a catalyst for opportunities in the security industry. As a leading trade show, Milipol supports companies in their international expansion and contributes to the global growth of French security solutions.

 

An Ambitious 2025 Programme: The Next Steps of the French Security D

 

The 2025 season promises to be full of opportunities, with several strategic missions planned in key regions. In March, an important stage will take place in Belgium (12-13 March 2025), a country at the heart of European security and safety challenges. This mission will provide French companies with an ideal platform to present their solutions to major institutions and local private sector players.

In June, a mission will cover Tunisia and Libya (23-26 June 2025), two rapidly evolving markets where the demand for security solutions is growing significantly. These meetings will help companies gain a better understanding of regional needs and identify long-term partnership opportunities.

In September, a mission will take place in Poland and Ukraine (29 September - 3 October 2025), two countries where security and defence are major concerns. This event will be a unique opportunity for French companies to engage with local decision-makers and explore collaboration opportunities in a constantly evolving geopolitical context.

Finally, in November, a mission will be organised in Denmark (8-9 December 2025), a country that is investing a lot in new security and cybersecurity technologies. This stage will allow French businesses to access a dynamic Nordic market and strengthen their presence in Northern Europe.

 

The French Security Days have established themselves as an essential initiative for French companies looking to expand internationally. By facilitating meetings between industry leaders and key decision-makers, these events help position France as a major player in global security. Thanks to Business France and with the support of the Milipol network, companies have an effective tool to accelerate their growth and strengthen their presence in strategic markets. By participating in the French Security Days, they open up new opportunities and play an active role in protecting infrastructures and populations on a global scale.
