ARP S.A. and EURO-PARK MIELEC SEZ showcased the region’s investment potential during ADM Sevilla 2026
The EURO-PARK MIELEC Special Economic Zone and the Industrial Development Agency JSC (ARP S.A.) took part in this year’s edition of Aerospace & Defense Meetings Sevilla (ADM Sevilla 2026) – one of the most important international B2B events for the aerospace, defence and security sectors, held on 19–21 May in Seville.
The event was attended by Wiktor Cichoń – Director of the ARP S.A. Branch in Mielec, and Łukasz Kotapski – Vice‑President of the Management Board of ARP S.A., who represented the investment potential of the EURO-PARK MIELEC SEZ and the industrial development opportunities in the region.
An advanced B2B cooperation platform
ADM Sevilla is a specialised event based on pre‑scheduled one‑to‑one meetings, enabling participants to hold pre‑arranged business talks and to develop cooperation within global supply chains for the aerospace and defence industries.
The event brings together manufacturers, suppliers, service companies, start‑ups, representatives of the research community and decision‑makers, creating a space for building strategic partnerships and developing international activities.
Key discussion areas: Aviation Valley, dual use, local content
During meetings with international partners, representatives of ARP S.A. and the EURO-PARK MIELEC SEZ focused on key development directions:
- Aviation Valley as one of the most important industrial clusters in Europe, integrating companies from the aerospace sector and advanced technologies,
- dual‑use projects that combine civilian and defence applications and form an important element of the modern economy and security system,
- and the development of local content, meaning a greater share of local companies in international supply chains and in the implementation of high value‑added projects.
These discussions reflect global trends in which supply chain resilience, technological innovation and international cooperation play a key role in the sector’s competitiveness.
Developing relations and presence in the global ecosystem
Participation in ADM Sevilla 2026 made it possible to:
- establish new business contacts,
- identify potential industrial and technological partners,
- promote the investment potential of the Podkarpackie region and the offer of the EURO-PARK MIELEC SEZ,
- and strengthen the presence in the international aerospace and defence ecosystem.
The event confirmed the growing importance of Poland – including the Aviation Valley – as a key link in European and global supply chains in high‑tech sectors.
Towards further internationalisation
The presence of the EURO-PARK MIELEC SEZ and ARP S.A. in Seville is part of broader efforts to promote the internationalisation of Polish companies, strengthen their position in global projects and develop cooperation with foreign partners.
Participation in events such as ADM Sevilla is an important element in building economic competitiveness, developing investment and transferring modern technologies, especially in sectors of strategic importance for security and industrial development.
