Team Defence Information

What Team Defence Information does

Team Defence Information (TD-Info) is a UK-based collaborative association that operates as UKCeB trading as Team Defence Information. Headquartered in Bristol, it functions as an intermediary between the UK Ministry of Defence and the defence industry supply chain, informing defence information policy and piloting new ways of working. Its members include defence industry organisations (contractors, suppliers, and partners), the UK MOD, and small and medium enterprises within the defence sector.

TD-Info does not sell a unified software product. Instead, it delivers a portfolio of member services: an annual Defence Information Conference, dedicated Digital Engineering and Hydrogen conferences, communities of practice (including Knowledge Management), learning programmes, standards development, projects, and SME showcase events. Members gain business intelligence to align products, services, and working practices with defence requirements, plus access to working groups and policy dialogue. A wholly-owned regional subsidiary, TD-Info Canada, extends the model to Canadian defence and industry stakeholders, evidenced by events such as the Canadian Armed Forces Hydrogen Workshop.

The business model is membership-based, generating revenue through subscription-style membership fees from defence industry organisations, suppliers, and related entities. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is individually negotiated. The organisation holds a UK Cyber Essentials certification (2025), maintains a single Bristol headquarters with 1-10 employees, and operates across the UK and Canada. There are no disclosed funding rounds, external investors, M&A activity, or leadership changes in the source data.

Direct peers

• AFCEA International: Global defence, intelligence and technology professional association running conferences, chapters and communities of practice. Closely comparable in mission — connecting government, industry and academia around defence information — but with a much larger international footprint.
• ADS Group: UK aerospace, defence and security trade association representing industry to government, including MOD. Directly comparable to TD-Info as the leading UK defence industry membership body, though broader in scope (aerospace, land, maritime, security).
• National Defense Industrial Association (NDIA): US-based defence industry association that convenes government, military and industry through events, policy engagement and working groups. Comparable in function as a neutral defence-industry intermediary, though US-centric.

Regional players

• TechUK: UK technology trade association with a defence and national security programme that engages MOD on policy and standards. Comparable as a UK industry-to-government bridge, though its membership is broader (whole tech sector) and defence is one of several verticals.
• Canadian Association of Defence and Security Industries (CADSI): Canadian defence and security industry association working with the Canadian Armed Forces and government on policy, standards and procurement access. Closely comparable to TD-Info's UKCeB/TD-Info Canada positioning for the Canadian market.

Broad incumbents

• Aerospace Industries Association (AIA): US aerospace and defence industry trade association advocating policy and standards at national level. Comparable in convening and policy-influence role, though focused on aerospace OEMs and US government rather than UK information-policy niches.
• NATO Industrial Advisory Group (NIAG): NATO advisory body that channels industry input into alliance defence planning, standards and capability discussions. Comparable as a defence industry-to-government intermediary at the alliance level, though operating under NATO rather than a national membership model.

Emerging players

• Association of the United States Army (AUSA): US professional association linking the Army, government and industry through events, policy engagement and working groups. Comparable as a defence-focused membership intermediary, though Army-specific rather than information/cross-domain in focus.
