Details
The UK Security and Resilience Industry Suppliers Community (RISC) is pleased to host a webinar in collaboration with the Department for International Trade’s UK Defence and Security Exports (UKDSE) on the latest security export statistics, UKDSE’s security sector capability brochures, and the UKDSE sector specialist programme. RISC is an inclusive alliance of trade associations, suppliers and other organisations that represent the UK’s security and resilience sector and the founding partners of RISC are ADS,BSIA and TechUK.
The 2019 Security Export Strategy set out how industry will work in partnership with the Government to grow UK security exports. One of the tangible strands of joint work that arose from the strategy has been on producing brochures highlighting the capability of the UK security sector to overseas buyers. The development of these have been led by industry specialists who have been seconded into the department on a part-time basis. The first such brochure, on Major Events Security, was published in March 2021 and the second one on Border Security was released in November 2021.
To learn more about the sector specialist programme the speakers will give a presentation on their work developing the brochures and the value that they found, both personally and for their companies, in supporting UKDSE. The other speaker will then give an update on UKDSE’s wider activities and the latest work on upcoming capability brochures. They will also give a short update on the latest security export statistics.
