A day of transatlantic cooperation, innovation and new opportunities! The Transatlantic Defense Industry Access Forum brought together more than 300 participants, including over 80 U.S. and 70 Polish companies, to strengthen defense industry ties.
American technological excellence and Poland's industrial capabilities are creating opportunities for investment, co-production and collaboration in unmanned systems, counter-drone technologies and deep-strike capabilities.
Together, we are strengthening our collective defense and transatlantic security.
Engineers, entrepreneurs, investors, and executives: you play a vital role in @NATO’s collective defense and deterrence.
American innovation is helping to build a stronger, more capable NATO. By bringing together the best the American and European defense industries have to offer, we can develop new technologies, expand production, and deliver the capabilities our warfighters need. That’s why we created the Transatlantic Defense Industry Access Forum (TDIAF): to forge connections, strengthen transatlantic cooperation, and build the defense industrial capacity our Alliance needs to keep our people safe. Follow our accounts for the latest #TDIAF, which kicked off yesterday.
The Transatlantic Defense Industry Access Forum (#TDIAF) kicked off yesterday in Warsaw, Poland, bringing together:
➡️ 🇺🇸 80+ U.S. defense companies
➡️ 🇵🇱 100+ Polish defense companies
➡️ 🤝 500+ participants from across government and the private sector
Championed by @USAmbNATO Matthew Whitaker, in collaboration with the @exportgov, TDIAF is connecting American innovators with European governments and industry leaders to forge new partnerships, expand business opportunities, and strengthen our shared defense industrial base.
The goal is simple: turn cutting-edge innovation into real capabilities in the hands of the warfighters who keep us safe. Warsaw is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more!
Glad to join @USAmbPoland and A/S Fogel of @exportgov for these important discussions.
NATO Allies have committed to a historic new level of defense investment through the Hague Defense Commitment. Now, we must turn those commitments into capabilities through increased production, stronger supply chains, and faster delivery.
That takes a strong transatlantic defense industrial base. By working together, we can expand opportunities for American businesses, create jobs on both sides of the Atlantic, and deliver the capabilities our warfighters need.
🇺🇸 @CommerceGov Sec. Howard Lutnick invites you to apply for the 2027 #SelectUSASummit, May 2-5 in National Harbor, MD.
