DPRTE has launched a new Defence Community Platform, creating a single, year-round digital hub for the UK’s defence procurement and supply chain sector.

The move builds on a decade of partnership between DPRTE and Defence Online, combining their established communities into one comprehensive destination for defence procurement professionals, suppliers and industry stakeholders. The platform extends

DPRTE’s reach beyond the annual event calendar into a permanent, always-on digital community – ensuring that the intelligence, connections and opportunities the event generates are accessible throughout the year.
