EPE was honoured to stand among the best Aussie companies representing the Australian Industry & Defence Network (AIDN National) at the Sovereign Capability Showcase at Australian Parliament House, Canberra!
EPE emphasised the importance of the development of novel sovereign capabilities to not only protect Australian and allied soldiers and first responders in high threat environments but also to strengthen our industrial base though domestic commercialisation. EPE Group CEO Warwick Penrose had the opportunity to share ground-breaking CBRN protection technology at AIDN National with Minister for Defence Industry Pat Conroy MP and Meryl Swanson MP. The members of parliament were also given a sneak preview of the lunar rover which the ELO2 Consortium co-led by EPE and Lunar Outpost Oceania, is developing. The project for the Australian Space Agency aims to land a rover on the Moon as part of a future NASA – National Aeronautics and Space Administration Artemis mission
The 2023 event showcased over 30 Australian SME’s and Primes, and highlighted the critical role our 60,000-person-strong defence industry plays in equipping and sustaining your ADF.
