The Imperative

The UK MOD’s SDR sets out the need for a ‘Digital Targeting Web’ (DTW)

The Defence Industrial Strategy demands sovereign capability and SME-enriched supply chains. This evolving and scalable concept combines the requirements of both: re-diversifying the UK industrial base and, ultimately, contributing to prosperity and national security objectives

SCEPTRE has initiated a multi-role, private sector-led, Next Gen C2 technology stack, leveraging the most impactful emerging British technology at the speed of relevance for decisive advantage
