Plexal is building the UK’s most connected cyber ecosystem.
As the innovation partner to the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) delivering the Startups programme, we’re proud to be supporting the NCSC’s CyberUK Conference in Belfast this 19-20 April 2023.
CyberUK’s theme this year is: Securing an open and resilient digital future
- the need for cyber awareness is increasing
- the cyber sector is growing with more startups and scaleups using new science and technology to combat challenges
Plexal is working to close the gap between government needs and startup solutions. We’re working at the top level of government with our CCO Saj Huq, a member of the National Cyber Advisory Board (NCAB), which was assembled to protect and promote the UK’s interests in cyberspace, including how best to counter growing cyber threats.

Telling tales – “Why creating cyber communities can make a difference”
Description
The Community is the lifeblood of our cyber ecosystem. But at its heart it needs a constant flow of innovation, collaboration and skills to sustain a healthy and vibrant sector. Through the true story inspired by one individual, we’ll touch on every vital way we are working with the cyber community to sustain and grow.
We look forward to seeing you there!
