"My time at the UKDSC provided me with invaluable exposure to the future direction of defence and the MoD’s international collaboration efforts across the globe."

Madeleine Barrow - Seconded to UKDSC from QinetiQ

"The data produced by UKDSC proved invaluable, affording a meaningful & credible discussion. This has subsequently led to the signing of a formal space Terms of Reference agreement between UK Space Command and the JASDF Space Operations Centre, outlining future space cooperation. Excellent work, which demonstrates the worth of UKDSC."

Air Marshall Harv Smyth CB DFC OBE RAF - Air and Space Commander

"QinetiQ’s relationship with the UKDSC continues to go from strength-to-strength. Along with the excellent outputs from the standing functions, the development of the MoD and Industry-agreed Customer Work Plan has enabled the UKDSC to deliver essential outputs to Defence Growth Partnership industrial members in a timely manner as they pursue their growth and export goals."
