In 2025, Spain achieved the 2% of GDP target and is set to increase this to 2.1% in 2026, with the defence budget projected to reach ~\u20ac36 billion.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish defence ecosystem is comprised of circa 400 domestic companies, it remains relatively specialised, creating an attractive environment for business-to-business collaboration and partnerships. The markets reliance on imported raw materials and technologies highlights the need for dependable overseas partners, positioning UK suppliers as preferred collaborators to strengthen supply chains and mitigate risks. Export accounts for 70% of production, with nearly a third linked to collaborative projects, thereby offering scope for international joint ventures.<\/p>\n<p>Particular areas of opportunity are high-value components for a range of defence systems, with additional focus on air defence and counter-unmanned aerial systems (c-UAS).<\/p>\n<h3>Agenda<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>14:00 \u2013 Welcome remarks and house keeping (ADS)<\/li>\n<li>14:05 \u2013 Scene setting and briefing (Defence Attache and Defence Team)<\/li>\n<li>14:15 \u2013 Working with the Spanish MoD and FEINDEF (Speaker from Spanish MOD)<\/li>\n<li>14:30 \u2013 Opportunities and collaborations: a view from industry (Speaker from Navantia)<\/li>\n<li>14:40 \u2013 Available support from UK Government (Speaker from IC&amp;E)<\/li>\n<li>14:50 \u2013 Q&amp;A<\/li>\n<li>15:00 \u2013 Close<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Book your place<\/h3>\n<p>Click on the \u2018Register Now\u2019 button and login to book your place.
