Strategic partnership
Security and Resilience Growth Partnership
The UK's premier strategic forum, bringing together senior leaders from government, industry and academia to strengthen the nation's security, resilience and economic growth.
Co-chaired by the Security Minister and the Chair of the UK Security and Resilience Industry Suppliers Community (RISC), the partnership aligns national priorities with innovation, expertise and investment from across the security sector. Through strategic collaboration, the SRGP helps tackle complex security challenges, accelerate innovation, support UK exports and economic growth, and ensure the UK remains secure, resilient and globally competitive.
Our mission
The SRGP focuses on those complex, cross-cutting issues where collaboration between government and industry is essential to deliver outcomes at pace. It helps identify shared priorities, shape strategic direction, remove barriers to delivery and drive coordinated action across national security, resilience, science and technology, procurement, innovation and exports. By bringing together decision-makers from across sectors, the partnership ensures that expertise, investment and innovation are directed towards the UK's most pressing security needs.

From protecting critical national infrastructure and securing borders to tackling cyber threats, hostile state activity and emerging technologies, government increasingly relies on close collaboration with industry and academia to deliver effective solutions. The SRGP provides the strategic leadership and partnerships needed to address these challenges, enabling a more joined-up and resilient national security ecosystem.
