DPRTE is the UK’s leading event for defence procurement and supply‑chain engagement, officially supported by the Ministry of Defence. The 2026 event takes place 25–26 March at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre, bringing together government buyers, industry leaders, and suppliers for two days of strategic insight, networking, and collaboration across the defence acquisition landscape. It features keynote speakers, Knowledge Transfer Zones, innovation showcases, and opportunities for organisations to connect directly with MOD teams and major defence primes.
Business Northumberland will be attending DPRTE and is keen to speak with investors interested in opportunities across Northumberland. The team looks forward to engaging with individuals and organisations exploring growth, collaboration, or investment potential within the region.
