Championing Innovation and Partnerships

We joined leaders from government, venture capital, and start-ups to shape the future of dual-use technology at Resilience Conference 2025

For the second year in a row, NSSIF addressed an audience playing a pivotal role in funding and developing the most breakthrough start-ups at the Resilience Conference 2025.

We discussed the innovation landscape, breaking down barriers for how new companies can engage with us and explored how NSSIF works with companies flexibly to trial, test and adapt technologies that to solve national challenges, and increase the chance of direct procurement.

The UK has a thriving dual-use ecosystem and is becoming one of the best places to invest with the skills, talent and financing opportunities. As NSSIF scales to deliver £330M over the next five years, we are excited about working with the most breakthrough start-ups and innovative founders.

Partnerships are essential in delivering the technology that we need today - and tomorrow. By working together, we can achieve national impact whilst promoting growth in the UK economy.
