Dstl has announced dates for a new series of webinars designed to help small and medium-sized enterprises work with the defence sector.
The events were trailed by Interim Chief Executive Doug Umbers at Dstl’s hugely successful Supercharging Science industry event on 22 July 2021.
The webinars come against the background of an unprecedented increase in the defence budget which will mean around £1 billion extra will be spent on science and technology with industry and academia over the next 4 years.
They are free to attend and businesses do not need to have worked previously
with Dstl or in the defence sector. Attendance is welcomed from equipment and material manufacturers, engineers, innovators, researchers and academics and others who have a genuine interest and ability to work with Dstl.Webinar dates and times
