Reinforcing a Strong 23-Year Partnership in RAS Industry

Representatives from Saab Sweden, a leading global defence and security company, recently visited the BlueZone Group in Thornton, NSW, Australia. This visit marked the continuation of a 23-year business relationship between the two companies. The delegation, consisting of Nicolas Kolmodin – Head of Dynamics UW, Johan Strandlund – Head of Marketing and Sales at Saab Dynamics UW, and Olof Detlefsen – Sales Director of Dynamics UW, highlighted the quality and longevity of Saab’s Remote & Autonomous Systems (RAS) and emphasized the importance of long-term partnerships in the industry.

The visit was particularly significant as it marked Nicolas Kolmodin’s first visit to Australia and BlueZone. Mr Kolmodin expressed his excitement at the opportunity to see BlueZone’s operations firsthand and to continue building on the strong partnership that has been cultivated over the past two decades. During the visit, the delegation had the chance to tour BlueZone’s facilities and observe its cutting-edge technology and services.
