Media Centre - DSEI 17

Welcome to DSEI's online media centre - the focal point for all media information on DSEI. In the lead up to DSEI this section of the website will be updated regularly with information for journalists. DSEI is established as a truly international defence and security event and is a major attraction for relevant trade and broadcast media. DSEI provides an excellent opportunity for members of the media to gather the most up-to-date news and information on the global defence and security industries. A comprehensive, fully-staffed DSEI Media Centre will be open to all accredited media during the exhibition and will be the focal point for media information about exhibitors and DSEI news.

“DSEI is a landmark event presenting to the world the excellence of the UK defence and security businesses. We expect to welcome high level international delegations to take part in meetings with our strategic partners. For us in government it is hugely important, an important showcase, a stage for diplomacy, a platform for the international engagement. We are really looking forward to DSEI in September 2017.”

Harriett Baldwin MP, Minister for Defence Procurement
UK MOD
“I very much look forward to continuing my personal support to DSEI. It provides an excellent opportunity to explore the development of airpower capability, through engagement with the widest range of industry and international partners.”

Air Chief Marshal Sir Stephen Hillier KCB CBE DFC MA RAF Chief of the Air Staff

“I much look forward to DSEI 17. We intend to build on the very positive experience of DSEI 15 as we construct the partnerships we need to deal with the complexity of the future operating environment”

General Sir Nicholas Carter KCB CBE DSO ADC Gen Chief of the General Staff

"DSEI 2015 was the ideal occasion for the Royal Navy to demonstrate its ambition to lead and win through technological innovation. The opportunity to meet with so many partners from academia, industry and overseas at DSEI is, as always, a really useful component of our engagement with the vital partners through whom we seek to deliver this innovation."

Admiral Sir Philip Jones KCB ADC, The First Sea Lord and Chief of Naval Staff
Royal Navy
"DSEI 17 will offer Joint Forces Command the opportunity to report on our plans for the future, in particular on operationalising our Warfare In The Information Age concept. I am looking forward to it."

General Sir Chris Deverell Commander Joint Forces Command
"DSEI is a highlight within the defence calendar, I use it to find out what the most recent developments are in every technological area affecting for defence. Without DSEI I fear this sort of interaction, information exchange and knowledge of developments across all domains would be lost. DSEI is an invaluable international biannual event .”

Rt Hon Dr Julian Lewis MP, Chairman, House of Commons Defence Select Committee
UK Parliament
“DSEI is a fantastic showcase for defence companies where international buyers, sellers, developers, thinkers, educators and the trainers can all get together. The UK defence industry is looking to recruit more engineers, scientists and developers into 200,000 jobs and up to 10,000 apprentices within UK defence companies. DSEI is an excellent tool to highlight the challenges the industry face as well as showcase its capabilities domestically and overseas.”
