FY 22/23 industry engagement programme

Tender description

The Royal Navy, in collaboration with SAAB, will host a Seabed Warfare seminar at Action Stations in the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard on 19 May 2022. This workshop will be an opportunity for the Royal Navy to set out its Seabed Warfare Problem Set and describe the challenges the Royal Navy is seeking to solve in this area. Representatives from industry and academia will share their experience of current seabed operations and equipment and offer insights into the future of seabed operations in the commercial sector and where there may be potential for sharing ideas and best practice for transfer into the military environment. The aim of the event is to begin a conversation on seabed capabilities and operations between academia, industry experts and representatives from the Royal Navy Underwater Battlespace Team. The presentations will NOT be sales pitches, but rather reflect the principles, challenges, concerns and examples of the respective individuals’ domain expertise. For this event all information shared and discussion will be at the official level only. Please see the attached PDF for full information and the sign up link.
