An era in which we will deter the threats by sustaining warfighting readiness and strengthening security in the Euro-Atlantic. The DIS has committed to REFORM procurement\, INNOVATE at wartime pace\, and GROW the industrial base. As a key part of this reform\, MOD is committed to ‘deliver digitally enabled acquisition’. \nThe Digital Engineering ‘26 conference\, 10-11 March 2026 in Bristol\, will provide a unique platform for Defence Leaders to share the vision for digitally enabled acquisition and the key elements that require reform for new requirements to be ‘Born Digital’ and digitally enabled through life. Digital Engineering is at the core of this reform and the conference will focus expert panels from across government\, MOD\, Industry and academia to address the challenges. Join us at DE’26 to work together sharing knowledge\, skills and experience to improve the Digital Engineering contribution to the new era of UK Defence. \nHowever… This isn’t a conference you sit through… It’s one you experience… Complex challenges don’t need longer talks!  \nThey need sharper thinking\, fresh perspectives\, and real energy in the room. \nThat’s why this year we’ve reimagined the format—replacing traditional lectures with dynamic\, high-impact sessions designed to challenge your thinking\, keep you engaged\, inspired\, and part of the conversation. \nThe Big Idea Talk\nFifteen minutes. One powerful idea. Fast-paced\, focused\, and unforgettable—designed to spark debate\, and give you something you’ll be thinking about long after you leave the room. \nThe Deep Dive Conversation\nA live\, unscripted exchange with leading voices—where ideas are tested\, challenged\, and taken further. Think podcast-style energy\, real-time exchange\, and ideas you can use—fuelled by expert voices and audience interaction. Expect less sitting back…More lean-in moments… \nAnd conversations that stay with you long after the conference ends! \n \n\n\n\n\nSee below for details of the conference themes\, speakers invited and attending and please note the programme is still growing\, this is just a taster – TBC and STC. \nThe programme so far\, watch out for updates!  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n  \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nDelegates Register here\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nDelegate Terms & Conditions\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nSponsor/Exhibit here\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nDownload Exhibitor Terms & Conditions\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nView DE26 Agenda Here stc\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n\n\nTicket Prices do not include VAT \n\n\n\n\n\nMembers: £600 Both days\, £325 Single day & £100 Virtual\nNon Members: £900 Both days\, £500 Single day & £200 Virtual\nMOD: Free of charge\n\nRemember to book Network Extra (as a sub event).

Only senior MOD leaders and decision‑makers responsible for Defence’s future energy and resilience requirements will be present\, ensuring focused\, high‑value discussion throughout. \nThe Defence Energy Conference 2026 brings partners together to build shared clarity joining defence\, energy resilience and industrial capability. In a complex and uncertain environment\, no single organisation holds the full picture. Progress depends on collaboration\, openness and a common understanding of how energy-related activity connects across the system. \nThe conference provides a structured forum for defence\, allies\, partners\, industry\, finance and academia to align perspectives\, share insight and explore credible pathways forward. Grounded in the operational realities of our developing operating context\, it supports clearer connections between innovation\, infrastructure\, supply chains and future capability needs. \nThe intent is to strengthen coherence: helping partners understand where their efforts intersect\, where dependencies exist\, and how collective action can improve resilience over time. By improving shared understanding and coordination\, the conference supports more confident decision-making and a stronger foundation for future energy-related activity across defence and its partners. \nStrategic Coherence in UK Defence\, Energy and Industrial Policy (2025–26) \nPurpose and importance – Since early 2025\, UK strategy has shifted toward a more integrated view of national security\, resilience and industrial capacity. Defence\, energy and economic policy are no longer treated as parallel tracks but as interdependent parts of a single system operating under sustained uncertainty. This creates both pressure and opportunity for defence. The importance lies not in confirmed programmes or funding lines\, but in the growing expectation that defence will articulate its needs in ways that shape wider national priorities\, investment logic and industrial behaviour. \nKey defence implications – For defence\, the implication is a stronger role in setting direction rather than reacting to supply. Energy security and resilience\, infrastructure dependence and industrial capacity are increasingly recognised as national security concerns\, giving defence greater influence over cross-government thinking. The opportunity is to translate operational energy realities into clear capability signals that inform industrial strategy\, innovation focus and long-term resilience planning. Anchored by UK Ministry of Defence\, defence can act as a convenor and system integrator\, shaping shared understanding of risk\, dependency and priority rather than relying on fragmented\, short-term solutions. \nTD-Info Contacts: sue.russell@teamdefence.info\, kelly.gough@teamdefence.info\, demi.bowler@teamdefence.info \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \nSponsor/Exhibit here\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \nDownload Exhibitor Terms & Conditions\n\n\n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n Receive Email UpdatesUnsubscribe\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Quick Links\nHomeAboutAreas Of FocusInformationSupportMember PoliciesProjectsGovernanceNewsContact \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Contact us\nBy Telephone+44 (0)1454 410 550 \nBy E-mailadmin@teamdefence.info \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n Location\nTeam Defence Information6a Pinkers CourtBriarlands Office ParkGloucester RoadRudgewayBristolBS35 3QH \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n UKCeB trading as Team Defence Information (TD-Info). © 2021 All Rights Reserved | UKCeB.
