NCT: More than events. A year-round capability platform.
NCT is part of the international CBRNE, EOD and specialist-response community. Throughout the year, we work with governments, armed forces, first responders, international organizations, experts and industry as a partner in knowledge exchange, training and capability development.
Our conferences and exhibitions bring the community together, while webinars continue the exchange between events. NCT CBNW Magazine and the NCT Newsletter reach more than 15,000 readers each month, sharing industry developments, expert perspectives and updates from across the international CBRNE community.
NCT PRO X and NCT PRO Challenge turn knowledge and technology into practical experience. The NCT PRO Academy provides structured equipment training and certification, while our consulting work helps governments and organizations examine operational requirements, technologies and future capabilities. Together, these connected activities allow NCT to support the community throughout the year.
NCT Conferences & Exhibitions
Knowledge, technology and international cooperation
NCT events combine a focused conference programme with a specialist industry exhibition, bringing the regional CBRNE community together in one platform. Participants examine emerging threats and operational requirements, discover technologies, compare solutions and engage directly with the organizations developing them.
The experience extends beyond the conference room and exhibition floor. Curated networking activities—including the NCT Senior Leaders Dinner, NCT Tech Tour, receptions and facilitated introductions—create valuable opportunities for government representatives, operational leaders, experts and industry partners to build relationships in a more focused environment.
For industry, NCT provides direct access to professional users, decision-makers, partners and prospective customers. For government and operational participants, it offers an opportunity to exchange experience, explore relevant capabilities and develop the international partnerships needed to strengthen preparedness and response.
NCT PRO Training & Exercises
Realistic missions. Practical equipment experience. Stronger teams.
NCT PRO is a professionally managed, scenario-driven training environment for military, police, CBRNE, EOD and specialist-response teams. It brings together realistic missions, experienced instructors, industry equipment and a dedicated IT support infrastructure.
NCT PRO is delivered in two formats:
NCT PRO X offers short, focused missions integrated into selected NCT events. Teams experience specific operational challenges, apply equipment in realistic conditions and demonstrate capabilities to the wider event community.
NCT PRO Challenge is a large-scale, multi-day exercise in which national and international teams conduct complex missions across different disciplines. The format supports deeper training, cooperation between units and the integration of multiple technologies into complete operational workflows.
Teams prepare through pre-exercise e-learning and equipment familiarization before entering the practical training environment. During the exercise, experienced instructors and exercise-control staff operate from a fully equipped Tactical Operations Center, coordinating missions, communications, scenario injects, safety and performance evaluation. The supporting IT infrastructure enables mission management, structured information collection, media capture and controlled after-action reviews.
For participating teams, NCT PRO strengthens operational readiness, equipment proficiency and multidisciplinary cooperation. For industry partners, it provides direct engagement with professional users and demonstrates how their equipment performs as part of a realistic mission.
NCT gives technology providers direct access to the international CBRNE, EOD and specialist-response community. Through our events, training programs and NCT PRO exercises, companies can demonstrate their solutions, engage with end users and place equipment in realistic operational scenarios. We also help industry turn product knowledge into structured training through the NCT PRO Academy.
NCT PRO places military, police, fire, medical, CBRNE and EOD teams in realistic, multinational training environments. Teams work through complex scenarios, test technologies alongside industry experts and exchange tactics with specialist units from other countries. Participation is designed to deliver practical experience, professional connections and lessons that teams can take back to their organizations.
