People And Skills

To mark its twentieth anniversary, the organisers of Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI) today launch a podcast series titled “Defence and Security Debates”. The series includes four “round table” panel discussions with leading voices from the UK defence and security community, including: senior military, government officials, Defence Ministers, Members of Parliament and industry figureheads from DSEI’s core exhibitor base.

The Debates focus on four core themes: Defence Procurement, Cross Sector Exploitation, People and Skills, and Future Defence Capability. Led by DSEI Chairman, Rear Adm. Simon Williams, each episode the panel examines how these areas have developed in the two decades since DSEI was established, current challenges and opportunities.
