Nominations and voting for the techUK Defence Board and Defence Programme Forums took place over the winter, with a record number of techUK members standing for election. The current term for those successfully elected is 2 years, with the next elections scheduled for winter 2027.
The Defence Board is composed of 30 techUK members, including 5 SME representatives and 25 larger companies. The Board brings together a broad group of industry leaders from the Defence sector, who will champion industry's interests and drive an ambitious programme of activity between techUK and its stakeholders across the Defence enterprise. The Defence Board will act as the voice of the wider techUK Defence membership, and its primary focus is to address strategic concerns that impact the Defence technology sector.
The Defence Programme Forums focus on specific areas of Defence where techUK members have an interest in engaging with key stakeholders. The Forums host briefings and webinars throughout the year, and are governed by elected Chairs and Vice Chairs. The Forum Chairs attend Defence Board meetings to provide an update on Forum activities and to seek Board approval and guidance when necessary.
