"Zetwerk and Pinaka have a history of working together, and we are confident that our combined capabilities will help shape the aerospace and defence industry as we bring back demand for Indian manufacturing from global OEMs (original equipment manufacturers)," said Amrit Acharya, co-founder and chief executive, Zetwerk Manufacturing. "As we scale and expand further, we will look to add more homegrown manufacturing companies into our portfolio to grow our business."
The company provides communication solutions to Indian defence units, government research facilities like Defence Research and Development Organisation and the Indian Space Research Organisation and enterprise clients like Carlisle, Tata, AVTEC, BEL, and HAL, among others.
