What does it take to be a successful Australian manufacturer in 2020? This Friday we put the question to Todd Alder, CEO of Orbital UAV (ASX: OEC) – the Australian world-leading designer and manufacturer of engines for tactical drones. Todd was joined by Jason Skinner, Managing Director of corporate advisors JP Equity. Jason has been acting as lead manager and corporate advisor on several interesting capital-raising and IPOs in the tech and mining space this year. 2020 has alerted Australians to two strategic challenges – a depleted manufacturing sector, and growing challenges for our regional defence as relations between our biggest trading partners become fractious.
