MarRI-UK has announced the publication of the UK's Academic Capacity and Capability for Shipbuilding Report funded by the National Shipbuilding Office.

The purpose of this report is to provide an insight into the UK’s current research capabilities, understand what other nations are doing and provide a series of recommendations to industry and government for enhanced competitiveness.

The NSO’s CEO Rear Admiral Rex Cox said, “The National Shipbuilding Office is delighted to have sponsored this insightful report. To drive the UK to the forefront of the shipbuilding industry, we need to expand and invest in innovation and effective engineering across the enterprise. Aligning our world leading academic research sector with our NSbS Refresh is key. The UK shipbuilding enterprise can be world leading in areas such as decarbonisation, autonomy and intelligent systems. However, to reach this position we must commercialise UK’s research capability, leveraging it to enable a productive, thriving and globally competitive industry.”
