ABOUT THE EVENT
AuxDefense 2022 — 3rd World Conference on Advanced Materials for Defense is sponsored by the Portuguese Ministry of National Defense, organized by the University of Minho, and it’s focused on the latest scientific and technical novelties in advanced materials for Defense, including equipment and soldier protective systems.
The conference will bring together various universities, researchers, technological centers, companies, and all of the entities interested in innovative solutions for this very high demanding field. The conference also aims to be a place that promotes the exchange of ideas, the presentation of the latest developments and trends, the proposal of new solutions, and, ultimately promote international collaborations.
