The Ministry of Armies and Veterans has announced the 8th edition of i‑Naval, a naval defence innovation conference scheduled for 11 June 2026 in Toulon. The event, organized by the DGA Naval Techniques Center, the University of Toulon, the Navy and TVT Innovation, will bring together military authorities, academics and industry to showcase operationally relevant innovations for the French Navy. Support comes from the South Region, TPM and GICAN. The conference aligns with the Navy’s 400th anniversary and its reference centres such as CeRDAN, emphasizing drones, artificial intelligence and digital systems as key to maintaining deployment readiness. Around twenty innovations will be presented in realistic scenarios, featuring live demonstrations and large‑screen displays. Press accreditation is required before 5 June 2026; details and a QR code will be provided upon confirmation. More information is available at i‑naval.fr.
