IISS Shangri-La Dialogue 2026 | Special Session 3: Building Defence-industrial Resilience

Recent conflicts and growing geopolitical tensions have highlighted the importance of defence-industrial capacity and security of supply, the challenges of building magazine depth, and the need to reform procurement processes. Recent conflicts have also led to a re-examination of innovation strategies and timelines. This special session considered how countries could build defence-industrial resilience through partnerships and frameworks, old and new.
