In this episode of the Defence Connect Podcast, host Phil Tarrant is joined by the director of Shadow Business Development, Matt Hill, who will address the benefit for SMEs to seek involvement in trade shows both in Australia and abroad.

Hill will share some of his tactics for maximising exposure at these events and how the government's push to make Australia a major defence exporter creates a huge opportunity for SMEs within the sector. He will reveal the mistake that many make when trying to connect with industry, the importance of being inviting and engaging, and reveal the must-attend upcoming trade shows for SMEs.

The pair will also talk about the changing defence sector landscape, with Hill sharing his thoughts on why such rapid change is occurring and discussing the future of Shadow Business Development.
