Adding upon his profoundly enlightening journey, Martin elucidates about how he tackles with situations to move ahead. While sharing his thought about the company he adds, “Alone is not strong, but together we are! I think most of us have walked into the trap where we make the mistake of believing that our idea or solution is so smart that it will always be the right solution for customer or that if we just walk the extra mile we will conquer that new market region, so have we in the past and it did not work.” 
“Today we work closely with our customers to achieve world-class product development and we have partnered up with some of the very best Aerial Target Drone and Tow Target manufacturers in the world. I think being a company smaller than a mid-size lunch restaurant serving more than 30 countries with world-class solutions is proof of our successful way of working” Martin adds.
