The Australian Drone industry is expanding and the recent capital raise by Carbonix is a perfect example. Carbonix recently raised  AU$6.3 million in late seed funding.  The round, which was oversubscribed, includes listed Defence aerospace manufacturer Quickstep Holdings Limited (ASX: QHL) (“Quickstep”) who invested $1M - adding a strategic dimension to the mix of individuals and small funds taking up the opportunity. 

This week, Mirragin's Andrew Crowe had a chat with Chief Technology Officer and Founder of Carbonix, Dario Valenza. Andrew and Dario discuss:

• Dario's background, and how he got into the drone industry (through competitive yacht sailing boat design!),
• the recent capital raise,
• Carbonix's technology
• 'Drones as a Service', and
• what's next for Carbonix.  

It's amazing watching this fantastic, maturing and industry grow!

Enjoy!
