The UK government has announced a £2.9 billion increase in UK Ministry of Defence funding. Last year's JEDHub Annual Economic Report, which can be read here JEDHub.org, highlighted a growing and diversified defence supply chain, with a 9.5% increase in spending on defence suppliers. The new budget will likely accelerate this growth, creating more opportunities for UK-based companies to contribute to defence capabilities. #JEDHub #Economic #Annualreport #Defence #UKbudget

We were delighted to support the Land Enterprise Working Group hosted by Babcock International Group at HMNB Devonport. The event was co-chaired by Major General Faithfull-Davies, Director Land Equipment DE&S and ADS Defence Director, Samira Braund MBA. Our Executive Director Prosperity, Innovation & Capability, Jason Watson-Massey and Samira Braund led an update on Strategic Defence Review themed papers.
