Defence Procurement, Research, Technology & Exportability (DPRTE) 2024
Description:
Connecting the Defence Procurement and Supply Chain Community DPRTE 2026 is the UK’s premier event for defence procurement and supply chain engagement. Officially supported by the Ministry of Defence, the event connects buyers, suppliers, and policymakers for two days of networking, knowledge sharing, and collaboration across all areas of defence acquisition.
This year’s event takes place in the context of the recently published Strategic Defence Review, the evolving Defence Industrial Strategy, and the government’s commitment to meet the new NATO target to spend 5% of the UK’s GDP on national security by 2035 with 3.5% to go on core defence and the remaining 1.5% on defence-related areas such as resilience and security.
These priorities will directly shape the event’s programme—delivering expert-led sessions, supply chain insights, and engagement opportunities designed to help suppliers navigate new policies, funding streams, and operational requirements.
