"The first BMNL event was a huge success for Dutch industry," said Brad Lunn, managing director for GA-ASI. "We've built strong investment opportunities with Dutch companies - including Arceon, Emergent Swarm Solutions, and Saluqi Motors - and now we're looking to build on that success at BMNL 2025."
Blue Magic Netherlands fosters technology ideation and implementation within the Dutch industrial ecosystem. GA-ASI is inviting Netherlands-based technology and aerospace companies, big and small, to apply for a chance to pitch transformative next-gen solutions that could shape the course of commercial and defence technologies.

Participating in this transformational event provides an ideal opportunity to connect with funding sources and collaborate with industry leaders. Companies and individuals wishing to only join the audience and network are welcome to register as well.
Companies interested in presenting their capabilities can submit a pitch proposal. GA-ASI and other participants will hear technology pitches followed by a lively panel discussion. Networking opportunities will also be available where participants can meet with other high-tech businesses and industry leaders to see if their capabilities can be leveraged in new and useful ways. Focus areas for this year are Intelligent Systems - Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning and Autonomy, Smart Materials - Advanced Materials and Manufacturing, Sensors, Space, and Counter-UAS.
Companies interested in presenting their capabilities must submit pitch proposals in PDF format by no later than October 10, 2025. Companies selected to present pitches will be notified on November 3, 2025.
