Defence Turkey: Can you please tell us about MEGE Technic’s history, its entering into the defense sector upon ROKETSAN’s order, and its current place in the Turkish defense, aviation and aerospace industry?
Özgür BAYRAM & Cansu KARAKAŞ: MEGE Technic was founded in 2001 by our founder Mr. Ali Han after his retirement from ASELSAN and started its activities with a team of 2 engineers and nearly 10 technicians. Established with the aim of making electronic and electro-mechanical products in the field of defense and aerospace, our company’s main activity field in its first year of establishment was the production of harness and electromechanical box, panel design and production and it aimed to progress in this framework. Again, during our first year, we undertook a long-term project from ROKETAN that lasted for 5 years, and we had the opportunity to prove our capabilities and grow our team.
