​Background

​Browne Jacobson, shipshape.vc, and Walmer Group, are heading to London for the next instalment in this high-impact series, this time during London Tech Week.

​This event follows the success of our first Brave New World event in Cardiff in March this year, where we brought together a dynamic mix of founders, investors, government, and industry at the offices of the Department for Business and Trade to explore the future of security, aerospace, and space. 

​The conversation was bold, challenging, and optimistic and we’re continuing the momentum in June at a venue TBC.
