Founded by 2017 Australian Young Engineer of the Year Stephen Bornstein, Cyborg Dynamics Engineering has a simple mission to turn great ideas into real products and be a leader in innovation in a variety of engineering sectors, including defence industry.
In this episode of the Defence Connect Podcast, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Bornstein, who will unpack the types of projects the company undertakes and the services it is able to offer SMEs. He will reveal some of the partners Cyborg Dynamics Engineering is currently working with, how his experience in Army Reserves is shaping his business and why he believes that Army Reserves is a great opportunity that younger Australians should be taking advantage of.
