Strategic Significance for Defence Holdings
Participation in the Coalition of the Willing provides Defence Holdings with:
● Direct involvement in early-stage NATO tasking and studies, particularly in areas where emerging technologies and industrial cooperation are central.
● Proximity to senior decision-makers from across NATO member industries, strengthening relationships at the highest levels of defence collaboration.
● A platform to ensure the perspectives of a sovereign UK-listed technology company are embedded in NATO-industrial dialogue.
Commenting on his appointment, James Norwood, Non-Executive Vice Chairman of Defence Holdings PLC, said:
"It is an honour to join the Coalition of the Willing. This group plays an important role in shaping research, tasking and industrial cooperation within NIAG. For Defence Holdings, it demonstrates our ability to operate alongside senior leaders from both primes and disruptors, and to ensure that sovereign, software-first perspectives are represented at the very heart of NATO's industrial dialogue."
