During a visit to Washington DC this week, CEO and Founder, David A. Collard caught up with Matt Addington, a highly valued member of the Scale Facilitation® Advisory Board, with the pair spending time with US Senator, Joni Ernst (R-IA).
Senator Ernst is a retired Lieutenant Colonel who sits on four Senate Committees, including the Senate Committee on Armed Services and the Senate Committee on Small Business & Entrepreneurship, two areas strongly aligned with Scale Facilitation®.
David and Matt raised areas of strategic importance to both Australia and the US, including closer technology and innovation partnerships and strengthening sovereign capabilities in areas such as renewable energy and critical minerals. Senator Ernst is a friend of Australia, and Scale Facilitation® extends gratitude to her and her team for the interaction as well as for Senator Ernst's military and continued service to the US and its people.
