Market entry and cooperation potential in the defense and security industry in the UK

The State of Bavaria Office in the UK, Bayern International and TechHUB Security & Defense cordially invite you to a webinar designed to highlight market opportunities in the UK defense and security industry.

The webinar will be held in English from 10 am to 11:30 am and is aimed at companies from across Bavaria with an interest in the UK defense and security industry.

The event is also a preparation for Bavaria's stand at DSEI 2025, one of the world's leading defense and security trade fairs in London, where Bayern International will be represented with a joint Bavarian stand from 9-12 September 2025.

The United Kingdom remains a key security policy partner for Europe. In the Strategic Defense Review published in mid-June, the British government announced comprehensive reforms and investments that will bring market opportunities. In addition, the UK's new security and defense partnership with the EU agreed at the EU-UK summit in May 2025 and the German-British defense agreement “Trinity House Agreement” concluded in October 2024 are intended to promote industrial cooperation.

What do these developments mean for Bavarian companies with an interest in the UK market? The webinar offers the following insights:

• Samira Braund, Defence Director at ADS Group, UK Aerospace, Defense and Security Industry Association: UK Security and Defence Industrial Landscape
• Captain Phil Tilden, Royal Navy, Naval Attaché, British Embassy in Berlin: UK security priorities and opportunities for cooperation
