Buyer stands
Most industry events ask suppliers to exhibit and hope the right people stop by.
JOSCAR Live does things differently: it is the Buyers that exhibit.
Speak directly with procurement teams, understand their priorities, share your capabilities and build relationships.
No gatekeepers. No cold introductions. Just meaningful conversations with the people helping shape the future of the Defence supply chain.
It's one of the reasons suppliers tell us JOSCAR Live delivers conversations they simply can't create through email, LinkedIn or traditional exhibitions.
Request a 1-2-1
Get face-to-face with JOSCAR Buyers through our popular Meet the Buyer speed-networking sessions - coming soon.
Buyers tell us which supplier capabilities they're actively interested in meeting, allowing you to request conversations with organisations that are relevant to your business.
In just 5 minutes, you can introduce your company, showcase your capabilities, and begin building relationships with procurement teams from across the Defence community.
The right conversation at the right time can make all the difference. Sometimes, it's all it takes to open the door to a valuable new relationship.

JOSCAR Live is different to other events because this is not a conference that people attend and they're spoken to. This is the forum that we come together to collaborate.
