The Defence Export Promotion Organization (DEPO) under the Ministry of Defence and Defense Production organises International Defence Exhibition and Seminar in Karachi every two years.

The biennial exhibition features not only defence equipment manufactured locally in Pakistan but also major defense companies from around the world exhibit their equipment.

International Defence Exhibition and Seminar (IDEAS) is a mega event in South Asia; biennially organised in Pakistan by the Defence Export Promotion Organization (DEPO), Ministry of Defence Production (MoDP).

Since its inception in the year 2000, IDEAS has emerged as an international rendezvous for defence manufacturers, entrepreneurs, R&D specialists, financial experts and top-level policymakers to promote cooperation, knowledge sharing and support ventures in the field of defence collaboration.

The 11th edition of the IDEAS event was held in November 2022 in Karachi after a four-year gap, instead of the usual two-year interval, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The 12th Edition of IDEAS-2024 is scheduled from 19-22 November 2024 at the Karachi Expo Centre (KEC).
