Time: 9:30-16:00
As demand for lightweight, high-temperature materials accelerates, CMCs are increasingly recognised as essential for enabling next-generation defence platforms, alongside advanced aerospace and energy applications. In recent years, during the ‘Extreme Composites’ event series, end users have expressed their desire to accelerate the development of a UK supply chain to meet future demands.
The event will comprise of talks and look to highlight collaboration opportunities with a focus on:
-
Technological and supply chain developments in the UK.
-
Strengthening cross-border collaboration to address common challenges in CMC development and scale-up.
-
Promoting joint R&D, standardisation, and workforce development to sustain long-term competitiveness.
By aligning the interests of suppliers, developers, and end-users, the conference aims to reduce duplication of effort, accelerate development, and establish a resilient CMC ecosystem that underpins both European strategic autonomy and the urgent requirements of the defence sector.
