 Organised by INEGMA the conference has secured the prestigious renewal of Patronage from His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces for MEMAD.

The patronage from Sheikh Mohammed guarantees a strong support from the UAE Armed Forces in particular the UAE Air Force and Air Defense Commands, which INEGMA said ensures MEMAD remains the exclusively officially supported missile and air defence event inside the UAE and will again gather the largest numbers of the most relevant decision-makers from militaries across the region.



MEMAD was established in 2008 by INEGMA to facilitate decision-makers from militaries and missile defense agency's around the Middle East to plan and prepare for the most effective missile and air defense systems anywhere in the world. The event blends the latest insights from government, industry and academia to create a comprehensive forum for understanding critical challenges of emergent missile threats through examining state-of-the-art integrated missile and air defense systems against the full spectrum of air threats in the Middle East-specific threat environment.
