Security and Resilience Growth Partnership (SRGP)

In an era of evolving threats and complex challenges, cross-sector collaboration is more essential than ever. The Security and Resilience Growth Partnership (SRGP) stands at the forefront of this effort, acting as a powerful platform for aligning the UK's national security goals with industry innovation and academic insight.

What is the SRGP?

The SRGP is a strategic initiative designed to bring together key decision-makers from government, industry, and academia. Its mission is clear: to enhance the UK’s security and resilience capabilities through structured, purposeful collaboration. By facilitating open dialogue and joint problem-solving, the SRGP ensures that national security objectives are not only understood, but actively supported by the broader security ecosystem.

Who Leads the Partnership?

Jointly chaired by the Minister of State for Security and the Chair of RISC (the UK’s Security and Resilience Industry Suppliers’ Community), the SRGP reflects a high-level commitment to partnership working. This leadership model ensures a balanced representation of public and private interests, bridging the gap between policymaking and innovation.

Who is Involved?

The SRGP Board comprises senior representatives from across the security sector, including:

• Trade associations representing security and resilience suppliers

• Leading academic institutions with expertise in security research

• The Home Office and other relevant government departments

Together, this group provides a unified, strategic forum for discussing national security needs and capabilities.

Why Do We Host the SRGP?

Hosting the SRGP is not just a matter of convening stakeholders—it’s about creating impact. The forum helps:

• Break down traditional barriers to communication

• Provide clarity to industry about the UK Government’s security priorities

• Align public procurement and policy development with the capabilities and innovations available in the market

In doing so, the SRGP supports a more responsive and resilient national security framework.

Looking Ahead

As global threats continue to evolve, the SRGP remains a cornerstone of the UK’s approach to security sector engagement. By fostering trust, transparency, and mutual understanding, it ensures that government, industry, and academia can work together to protect the public and maintain national resilience.
