Southampton: Dstl to participate at Nucleus Expo Hampshire

The UK’s Defence Science and Technology Laboratory (Dstl), has announced its participation in Nucleus Expo Hampshire 2016, the science-and-technology themed event set to take place at the University of Southampton Science Park on Wednesday September 21. It will be supporting the Aerospace and Defence exhibition zone. 

Dstl works to maximise the impact of science and technology on UK defence and security through a number of programmes, including engagement with commercial enterprises. The organisation hopes to create awareness of its collaborative initiatives at the event, including Easy Access IP which offers IP to potential partners without charge, Ploughshare Innovation and the Centre for Defence Enterprise (CDE).

Andrew Seedhouse, head of CDE, said: “Dstl works in a number of ways to improve the UK’s use of science and technology for defence and security purposes including consultancy services, research, risk management, engineering and technical work. We are keen to enhance relationships with private-sector organisations and Nucleus Expo provides us with a good opportunity to promote the benefits of working with Dstl and to make vital mutually beneficial connections.”
