On February 25th, 2017, Aeron Systems was presented with the prestigious DEMA Excellence Award for its work in Inertial Navigation Systems. The award was handed over by Dr. G. Satheesh Reddy, scientific advisor to the Defense Minister of India (SA to RM). Mr. Ashvani Shukla and Mr. Abhijeet Bokil, founders of Aeron Systems, accepted the award on behalf of the organization.
During his address, Dr. Reddy expressed his delight about many young entrepreneurs working in the manufacturing sector, especially those supplying equipment to the defense sector.
