Memoranda of Understanding, like this one in Florida, make it easier for UK businesses to build connections and access thriving economies in states across America. And that’s good for both of us!

Last week, USAF Air War College GSS students and faculty traveled to DC for a week full of strategic-level engagements across the national security spectrum. We were hosted by HASC Chairman Mike Rogers, Congressman Don Bacon, the National Security Council, The White House, the International Committee of the Red Cross - ICRC, the U.S. Department of State, the British Embassy Washington, The Joint Staff, the Pentagon, US Department of Defense, Office of the Secretary of Defense for Policy, USAID and RAND. We discussed national security variables across the Defense enterprise and immersed the students in decision-making perspectives on integrated deterrence within the DIME, focusing on the evolving landscape of our strategic environment.

The UK and Florida enjoy a robust relationship that continues to expand 🤝   The Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed last year is a significant step towards advancing this relationship. By reducing barriers to entry, streamlining regulations and enhancing business networks, the MoU seeks to strengthen UK-Florida ties with the goal of creating new opportunities and driving #growth in both economies.     Swipe to learn about the UK-Florida partnership 👇     And to find out more on how the UK is collaborating with US states 🔗   https://lnkd.in/e692g-zY Department for Business and Trade | British Consulate-General Miami

Modern society relies on critical minerals – from phones to wind turbines, from cars to fighter jets. A new cohort of critical minerals are becoming even more important as we seek to bolster our energy security and domestic industrial resilience and move away from volatile, expensive fossil fuels. The UK government is looking at ways of increasing the resilience and security of critical minerals supply chains - and for this we rely on partnerships and collaborative working with our US colleagues and counterparts. And what better place to have this important conversation than at the beautiful Natural History Museum in London, which houses one of the most important and comprehensive mineral collections in the world, and where delegates from both sides of the Atlantic gathered recently.
