DASA Investment Showcase 2024

Running for the fifth consecutive year, this popular event brings together an exciting range of companies selected from over 150 organisations that have previously been awarded research contracts by DASA to develop their innovations.

Each business is now at the stage where they are seeking funding to grow and scale and to commercialise their ideas which are all dual use – but will have a real impact for Defence and Security!

13 companies will give a 5 minute pitch about their business, grouped by technology strands. Investors will have the opportunity to ask specific follow up questions and build connections during the various networking breaks.

A broad range of investment asks will be presented, ranging from pre-Seed through to Series A and beyond with the average investment ask of this cohort sitting around £2m.
