Proof HMG/MoD is actually investing in UK sme's? From Sky news today.
"Luke Pollard, a defence minister, said the company’s latest fundraising formed part of government efforts to build UK sovereign capabilities through UK Defence Innovation, an agency overseen by the Ministry of Defence.
“We are committed to strengthening national security by scaling British SMEs and start-ups which help keep UK’s defence industry at the cutting edge of innovation,” Mr Pollard said.
“Last year we backed SatVu with a defence innovation loan, which has already helped spark £30 million further private investment through this funding round.”
We're all hoping here that something similar is announce by Alrt. 6 weeks to go for bod to deliver on their self proclaimed Q1 news rich period. If not, I'm out to other possibles.
