SDSC-UK 2026

SDSC-UK (formerly 3CDSE) is a specialist event that showcases the capabilities of innovative defence and security SMEs. While its core purpose is to connect these businesses directly with MOD capability and procurement teams, the event also welcomes larger organisations that support SMEs in reaching end users.

SDSC-UK provides a focused environment for networking, collaboration and the exchange of ideas.

SDSC‑UK is where the defence and security community comes together. From MOD Capability and Procurement teams to leading industry innovators, this is your opportunity to:

• See cutting-edge solutions in action – explore the latest technologies and capabilities from SMEs and global primes.
• Hear from decision-makers – gain insights from senior military leaders, government representatives, and industry experts on future strategies and requirements.
• Network with key stakeholders – connect with potential partners, clients, and collaborators in an environment designed for meaningful conversations.
• Stay ahead of the curve – understand emerging trends shaping the defence and security landscape nationally and internationally.
