The Indo Pacific International Maritime Exposition is the region's premier commercial maritime and naval defence exposition.
The Indo Pacific International Maritime Exposition connects the maritime community in one of the world’s most dynamic regions, bringing together Defence, Navy, government, industry, technology, academia and international partners.
The biennial three-day event is a platform for engagement and incorporates an international industry exhibition, specialist conference program featuring presentations and symposia from leading maritime institutions and networking opportunities.
Australia’s maritime capability landscape is undergoing significant transformation. The 2026 National Defence Strategy (NDS) and 2026 Integrated Investment Program (IIP) place maritime capability, undersea warfare, autonomous and uncrewed systems, sovereign industrial capacity and stronger regional partnerships at the centre of Australia’s future defence posture.
For industry, this represents a growing marketplace across the design, development, manufacture, integration, sustainment and support of the capabilities required by the Royal Australian Navy and the broader Australian Defence Force.

WHAT WE DO
From concept to completion
We provide all services needed to make your exhibition process an easy experience.
Custom Exhibition Stands
Purpose-designed stands built specifically for your brand, product and space — no templates, no compromises. Every stand is designed to work exactly the way your team needs it to on the show floor.
Digital Stand Design
Concepts are developed and presented digitally before anything is built, using 3D renders and CAD plans so you can see exactly what you're getting. This means changes can be made early, while they're still easy and inexpensive.
Retail Design
The same design and fabrication expertise applied to retail environments, creating spaces that engage customers and reinforce brand identity beyond the trade show floor. From pop-ups to permanent fit-outs, the same attention to detail applies.
Graphic Design
Strong visual communication is built into every stand, from large-format branding through to wayfinding and product signage. Our in-house design team ensures every graphic element is cohesive, on-brand and print-ready.
Project Management
One team oversees your project from brief to bump-in, coordinating design, fabrication, logistics and installation under a single point of contact. Nothing falls through the cracks between separate suppliers.
Custom Fabrication + Joinery
Our in-house workshop builds every stand to precise specifications, from structural joinery through to fine finishing details. Complete control over fabrication means tighter quality control and faster turnaround.
Exhibition Hire Systems
For clients who don't need a fully custom build, our hire systems offer a cost-effective, reusable alternative without sacrificing a polished, professional finish. Ideal for recurring events or tighter budgets.
Installation + Logistics
We manage delivery, bump-in and on-site assembly at the venue, coordinating with show organisers and other contractors so your stand is ready well before doors open. Pack-down and freight are handled with the same care.
Signage + Graphics
From overhead banners to product displays, we produce and install large-format signage and graphics as part of the complete stand build. Every element is produced to match your brand guidelines precisely.
Audio Visual
We integrate screens, sound systems and interactive technology into stand designs to help you demonstrate products and engage visitors more effectively. AV requirements are planned in from the earliest design stage, not added on afterwards.
Lighting, Power, Data + Sound
We coordinate all essential services — lighting, power, data and sound — so your stand functions properly on the day, including for complex requirements like live product demonstrations. Every technical need is planned and tested well before opening.
Exhibit Storage + Management
For clients who exhibit regularly, we store and manage your stand between events, keeping components in good condition and ready for reuse. This reduces both cost and waste compared with rebuilding from scratch each time.
