Ministry of Defence & Public Sector

DPRTE 2026 offers a vital opportunity for defence and public sector procurement professionals to connect with peers, share insights, and engage directly with suppliers shaping the future of defence capability.

With the defence landscape evolving rapidly following the publication of the Strategic Defence Review and the Defence Industrial Strategy, DPRTE provides buyers with a unique platform to explore the latest innovations, technologies and supplier offerings.

Free to attend for MOD and wider public sector personnel, DPRTE 2026 will bring together over 3,000 key decision-makers across a two-day format.

Private Sector

The Ministry of Defence is committed to investing over £288 billion in equipment and support over the next decade, reaffirmed through the latest Spending Review and increased defence spending commitments.

With defence procurement recognised as a central pillar of the UK's growth strategy, there has never been a better time for businesses to engage with MOD buyers and position themselves at the forefront of supply chain development.

DPRTE 2026 is a unique platform for suppliers to understand upcoming procurement needs, forge new relationships with key stakeholders and showcase their capabilities.

A range of sponsorship and exhibition opportunities are available to help suppliers stand out and connect directly with the UK's defence procurement community.
