Ever walked out of a Defence industry event thinking, “That all sounds fantastic, but where on earth do I start?”
You’re not alone! With billions being invested in Defence, plenty of industry events and more acronyms than anyone can remember, it’s easy to get excited about the opportunities without knowing what to do next.
In this episode of the Powerhouse Podcast’s Defence Reality Checkseries, Esther Anderson takes us right back to basics.
We’re talking 10 practical steps to help small and medium businesses understand where they fit, who to contact, where to register and how to find genuine Defence opportunities.
From ODIS and Defence West to ICN Gateway, AusTender and the major contractors already delivering Defence projects, Esther explains where to start, what these organisations can offer and why registering your business is only the beginning.
And here’s the reality check: Not every business needs a Defence contract, and not every Defence opportunity is worth chasing.
We’ve also put together free downloadable guides covering the practical steps, useful contacts and those never-ending Defence acronyms.
No complicated Defence strategy. Just a straightforward starting point for businesses wondering what to do next.
