The Kalban International Technology Expo, commonly known as KITE is a reorccuring technology exhibition designed to provide a platform for nations to showcase and market technologies and products. Hosted in the KSKM and later the New Kalban Republic, the exhibition is traditionally dominated by displays of military equipment; across every running of the event the vast majority of corporations in attendance have been defence contractors. The most recent running in 2152, originally planned for 2149, marked the centenary of KITE.
KITE '49
KITE '49, held in January 2049, was the first Kalban International Technology Expo.
KITE '59 and replacement
KITE '59 was to be the second running of KITE, but was cancelled at short notice due to rising political tensions within the KSKM. In response, Fegeland quickly organised and hosted SURF '59. The change in title and venue arrived so late that some corporations arrived at SURF with KITE branded promotional material.

KITE '52
KITE '52, originally planned as KITE '49, was the centenary event of KITE. The event was delayed by three years due to political tensions between the New Kalban Republic and its political adversaries.
