Your invitation to the South Central Defence & Security Cluster Launch

Your invitation to the South Central Defence & Security Cluster launch event
After a successful pilot event in February called ‘SME Voice Day’, which brought together top tier and smaller suppliers, academia, and other key defence and security personnel, the new South Central Defence & Security Cluster is being officially launched.
This new Cluster is a collaboration led by industry and academia with the support of Government and its ministerial departments such as the MOD and its innovation directorate, and the Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA). The launch event will be an opportunity to help shape the Cluster and learn about the latest changes in MOD innovation and upcoming DASA opportunities, and hear from industry including top tier suppliers, SMEs, and academia. A networking lunch is also included.
The launch of this Cluster comes at a pivotal time when the MOD is increasingly turning to digital and data networks and devices, fortified by robust cyber security, to safeguard the security of the UK. By creating this new cluster, we can help drive investment, boost regional productivity, and contribute to the security of the UK while generating fantastic new career opportunities in the South Central region.
