Defence: Finance
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to the Defence Investment Plan, published on 30 June 2026, paragraph 19, by when will he convene a Defence Investment Summit.
Answered by Luke Pollard
The Defence Investment Plan confirmed that the Ministry of Defence will convene a Defence Investment Summit to showcase emerging opportunities and set out the next phase of delivery. This will enable investors to assess opportunities, align capital, and create a credible bridge to the publication of the Defence Finance and Investment Strategy in Autumn 2026.
Planning and design of the Defence Investment Summit are now underway, with further details on its scope, format and programme to be developed over the coming months.
