Thursday, 16 October, 18:00–20:00, Central London

The 2025 Spending Review makes clear that strengthening the UK’s resilience is a central government priority. Alongside the recently released Resilience Action Plan, it is evident these ambitions cannot be realised without the support and expertise of the private sector. The resilience of the UK depends on the collaborative efforts of both public and private sectors.

This year’s Autumn Reception, supported by Serco, will focus on:

  • The private sector’s role in strengthening the nation’s resilience
  • The UK Government’s vision for public-private collaboration
  • Opportunities to build connections that enhance national security, resilience, and preparedness

Join over 100 business and resilience leaders from across sectors for an engaging evening, with refreshments and an opportunity for networking.
