Wales is home to a host of businesses which are already developing and delivering defence and security capability – and there are many more which could be part of a resilient supply chain.

How do businesses identify opportunities, and how do they navigate the procurement landscape?

Host Gemma Casey is joined by Phil Jones, Chief Executive of Business in Focus, Tim Ketton-Locke, Director of the Office of Small Business Growth, UK at the MoD, Richard Morgan, Defence Consultant at Business in Focus and Helen Hayes, Senior Business Development Manager at BAE Systems.

With defence high on the political and economic agenda, businesses in Wales are being encouraged to understand the wider opportunities around defence spending.

Host Gemma Casey is joined by Phil Jones, Chief Executive of Business in Focus, Richard Selby, Founder and MD of Pro Steel Engineering and Rhys Owen, Executive Director General Dynamics Land Systems to discuss the opportunities.

In September Wales will play host to Defence Security Resilience Cymru, a flagship supply chain event for a safer, stronger and more resilient future.

In this episode, host Gemma Casey is joined by Phil Jones, Chief Executive of Business in Focus, Air Marshal Andrew Turner, Former Deputy Chief of the Air Force and now CEO of Saibre Capital, and BBC Wales Business Correspondent Huw Thomas to consider the geopolitical backdrop to the event, the implications of world events for UK defence and security and why this matters for Welsh businesses of all sizes.
