February Newsletter

We hope our readers have had a good February and welcome to the Vikela newsletter where we share our latest company and technology updates.

February Highlights

One of the main highlights of February for us was exhibiting our lightweight stab protection solutions at the Noble TR/EX 2024 conference in the US.

Noble TR/EX 2024

This was a fantastic event where we had plenty of opportunity to engage with potential users including the FBI, DEA, special agents, military, and coastguard.

We would especially like to thank NOBLE for inviting us to this exhibition and we look forward to expanding our reach in the US in the future.
