The Greater Lincolnshire Defence and Security Network (GLDSN) is an industry led forum.

Bringing together national and international defence organisations, manufacturing, research, development and innovation expertise, the network is designed to provide a single forum to overcome sector challenges and identify business opportunities in Greater Lincolnshire and Rutland.

The GLDSN has an initial aim of becoming recognised as a Regional Defence Cluster (RDSC).

This will give businesses the chance to lead and shape this sector and draw on Government funding to develop ideas, innovations and new products.
