Yorkshire Regional Defence & Security Cluster launch

The Yorkshire Regional Defence & Security Cluster (YRDSC) is set to launch on June 10, 2026. This initiative is a collaboration between industry, academia, local government, and the Ministry of Defence, aimed at strengthening the UK’s defense industrial base through regional collaboration with defense and security stakeholders. The cluster will encourage innovation, regional growth, and the development of sustainable partnerships across sectors. It will also unlock commercial opportunities and attract investment, supporting SME engagement and open pathways for non-traditional suppliers. The YRDSC will influence national policy and investment decisions from a Yorkshire perspective, stimulating greater sector knowledge, business, and economic growth across the region. Membership will be free and open to both those supplying into the sector and those seeking to supply into the defense and security sector.

This event is closed to the public.
