Defence Procurement, Research, Technology & Exportability (DPRTE) provides a unique opportunity for organisations – to not only to meet over 1000 key decision makers – but to grow their business by supplying to the industry.

The UK Ministry of Defence spends over £19 billion a year on equipment and services, and the Department’s current Ten Year Equipment Plan details its commitment to spend £160 billion on major defence procurement projects by 2022.

In his 2015 Budget, Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne announced that the MOD’s budget will rise by 0.5% above inflation each year up to 2020/21, and  that an additional £1.5 billion for defence and intelligence will be made available within the same timeframe.
