Defense Circle

Future of European Defense

Networking for a more resilient European defense

We connect the key decision-makers from politics, the military, industry, and academia. In an exclusive and confidential setting, you gain the opportunity to position your topics strategically and to engage directly with those actors who are shaping the future of an independent European defense. Participants include both newly elected and experienced members of the Bundestag and its committees, high-ranking representatives of the armed forces, leading researchers, and selected media partners.

Targeted networking – individually aligned

With each partner, we coordinate closely regarding the desired group of participants. We invite only those individuals with whom you truly wish to engage — individually, precisely, and effectively. Your requirements serve as the guiding framework for our curated invitation policy. Potential compliance challenges can be addressed transparently and in accordance with regulations by involving suitable media partners.

A forum for influence and impact

Whether you want to deepen existing relationships, strategically expand your network, or support a market entry or the launch of a new product — the Defense Circle gives you direct access to a high-caliber environment. An exclusive setting that generates attention, fosters trust, and delivers impact. Whether in dynamic discussions within your peer group, in focused boardroom conversations, or in discreet one-on-one meetings in your own suite — together we create the optimal format for achieving your goals.

Exceptional venue

The China Club Berlin is a discreet retreat, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and at the same time a place for encounter and exchange. It has become an Arcadia for its members, inviting them into a world of refined enjoyment.

From agenda development to participant management and security concepts all the way to GDPR-compliant registration — we take full operational responsibility so that you can focus on content and meaningful interactions.

A true all-inclusive package — professional, discreet, and efficient.

Confidential dialogue and connection

Let us — naturally while maintaining strict confidentiality — discuss your goals and needs. We would be pleased to welcome you for a personal meeting at our headquarters at Lützowufer, located directly behind the Federal Ministry of Defense.
