Meet the SMEs who’ve taken home the award in previous years - organisations whose ingenuity, passion, and commitment to advancing the Defence sector earned them a place in our Hall of Fame. Their success stories inspire the next generation of innovators entering the award today.
The connections, conversations and messages of support we received were overwhelming - in the best possible way. Thank you for giving us this platform and believing in what we’re building.
To come to an event and be on the floor with some of the biggest players in defence, it's just been invaluable.
We received the kind of publicity that money simply cannot buy. Our brand recognition experienced a remarkable surge.
JOSCAR Live provides unrivalled access for SMEs. As a shortlisted Innovation Award winner Glider was able to connect with several primes and develop conversations that would’ve taken months, or never progressed at all.
