EUCOM and AFRICOM to host 2026 Joint Innovation Forum

On May 6, the U.S. European Command (EUCOM) and U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) invited industry to exhibit and demonstrate capabilities at the 2026 Joint Innovation Forum, taking place July 21–22 in Stuttgart, Germany.

This government-hosted event brings together industry partners with government and military personnel from Kelley and Patch Barracks for two days of direct engagement. The forum will feature live, on-site demonstrations at both locations, along with a classified briefing for qualified participants.

EUCOM and AFRICOM will deliver a SECRET-level briefing outlining priority technology needs and operational capability gaps. While all exhibits and demonstrations are unclassified and do not require a security clearance, attendance at the briefing will require an active SECRET clearance.

This forum is designed to drive innovation, collaboration, and learning by connecting government personnel with industry leaders to address mission needs and explore advanced technology solutions. The goal of this event is to get real capabilities into the hands of the warfighter. Exhibiting companies are encouraged to showcase their solutions through live demonstrations and hands-on training, providing valuable insights and practical experience to attendees.

Exhibitors should register for each day separately. This will give the attendees the easiest access to view your products, services, and demonstrations right where they work. The briefing will be held at the end of the Patch Barracks exhibit day.
