VEKTA Advanced Automation
Member of the ECA
"In 2014 Vekta Automation became involved in the Export Awards and started to get a better understanding about the role of the Export Council of Australia.
After attending a seminar in Perth in February 2019 the decision was instantly made and we signed up the next day. A decision we should have made 5
years earlier. For Vekta, the information, expertise and networking opportunities that the ECA provides has been valuable. It is reassuring knowing
that there are experienced and knowledgeable people we can turn to when advice is needed."
