NCT Consultants is proud to announce that, in partnership with Booz Allen Hamilton, we have been contracted by USAREUR-AF to organize and execute NCT PRO Challenge Europe 2025, taking place as an official component of Defender 2025: Immediate Response—the largest NATO exercise led by the U.S. Army in 2025.
This high-impact training event will be held from June 2 to 6, 2025, in and around Alexandroupoli, Greece, approximately 300 km east of Thessaloniki. The exercise will bring together military and civil units to jointly train on host nation support missions, focusing on the arrival and deployment of allied forces.
NCT PRO Challenge Europe 2025 will welcome over 25 operational teams from 12 allied nations, who will train on CBRNe, EOD, and tactical mission scenarios across diverse locations including the port and inland areas of Alexandroupoli.
Participating teams will be supported by leading technology providers from Europe and the United States, who will supply state-of-the-art equipment to be field-tested during the exercise. This includes advanced CBRNe detection, protection and decontamination systems, X-ray screening solutions, medical countermeasure and equipment, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs), and aerial drones.
As part of the week’s program, NCT Consultants will host a Distinguished Visitor Day on Wednesday, June 4, offering an exclusive opportunity for senior military officials, government stakeholders, and industry leaders to observe live training demonstrations, interact with participants, and witness the integration of advanced technologies in a realistic operational setting.
We invite industry partners and solution providers to take part in this exceptional platform to engage with end-users, showcase innovations, and be part of a vital international security initiative.
For inquiries about participation or to express interest in exhibiting technology or attending Distinguished Visitor Day, please contact the NCT Consultants team at [email protected] or for media enquiries at [email protected] .
