Introducing North East Regional Defence and Security Cluster. RTC North are very proud to be part of a dedicated team dedicated to driving this new and exciting Cluster forward. The North East Regional Defence and Security Cluster. is a ground breaking initiative established to be a focal point for the sector in the region, helping to drive collaboration, innovation and opportunity. One of our aims is to support regional SMEs navigate their journey into the #defence and #security sector. To do this we will be hosting events over the next 6 months aimed at informing and building knowledge as to how to successfully enter these highly regulated industries. We will look to showcase the talent, technology and innovation of our SMEs through discussing the challenges of the sector and its businesses which in turn will allow us to create possible solutions to drive success. The nature of these industries however will mean some events will be via invite only. Therefore to make sure YOU dont miss out on being part of them and the Cluster, sign up today to be part of our mailing list and a Cluster member. https://lnkd.in/eEZyHh3F Please Note - There is no charge to being part of the Cluster. We are excited to bring businesses together to network, share journeys, to collaborate and develop an engaged, strong and capable supply chain that will entice more large enterprises and Primes to our North East region.

About us
UK Government has committed to substantial investment in the security & defence sector and the development of regional clusters was a key output of the SME action plan highlighted in 'The Defence and Security Industrial Strategy (DSIS), 2019. This strategy set out the government's vision for the defence and security sector in the UK. Supported by the Ministry of Defence (MOD), regional defence and security clusters aim 'to invigorate the Defence Industrial base by facilitating industry, Academia and government sharing ideas, promoting collaboration and identifying routes to market through exploitation and commercialisation'. Due to be operational in Spring 2024, the North East Regional Defence and Security Cluster will fulfil these functions for the North East region. A Steering Group is currently developing the cluster’s value proposition and membership model. The Steering Group will be supported by a wider advisory group consisting of SMEs, Primes, regional bodies and academia. Steering Group The Northeast Cluster is supported by major defence and security companies, including Leonardo, Lockheed Martin, QinetiQ, Airbus, and VRAI, NERDSC seeks to generate intellectual property, boost regional productivity, and create high-quality jobs. Backed by the Ministry of Defence, Defence and Security Accelerator (DASA), and other local stakeholders, NERDSC is strategically focused on attracting investment, securing defence contracts for local firms, and supporting SMEs.

Fantastic achievement team Filtronic. Great to see this success in our region. The North East Technology Park - NETPark is an amazing facility and I look forward to following the expansion journey. #northeast #prosperity #northeastregionaldefenceandsecurity
Filtronic triples revenue and profits as its relationship with SpaceX continues to grow. Based here at NETPark Filtronic has seen impressive financial gains, with £25.6m in revenue for the first half of the year. This success is largely driven by their work with SpaceX, including their involvement in the Starlink project. With the low earth orbit space market projected to be worth $310bn by 2031, Filtronic is positioning itself for even more growth, including the expansion of its facilities at NETPark.
