MDEX 2026 places your brand directly in front of the defense leaders, acquisition professionals, engineers, and innovators shaping the future of ground systems and advanced mobility technologies. Through strategic sponsorship opportunities—from prominent reception sponsorships and branded apparel to high-visibility on-site activations and speaking opportunities—your organization can achieve meaningful engagement with stakeholders across the defense ecosystem.

This year only, MDEX is co-located with Xponential, dramatically increasing the scale and impact of the event. Attendance is expected to grow from approximately 3,200 in 2025 to an anticipated 11,000 in 2026—offering sponsors expanded reach to a broader audience of government, industry, and technology leaders.

There is no more relevant backdrop than Michigan, a hub for American manufacturing, defense R&D, and mobility innovation. With proximity to the U.S. Army Ground Vehicle Systems Center, Detroit Arsenal, and cutting-edge innovation districts, MDEX 2026 provides a distinct platform to connect with the people, programs, and partnerships driving modernization.

This is your opportunity to elevate visibility, build strategic relationships, and demonstrate leadership where it matters most.
