The Veteran-owned defense contractor and consulting firm will meet with private equity investors and executives focused on Air, Defense, Space, and Technology
GRIFFISS INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (RME), ROME, NY, USA, July 12, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Wytrwal Industries Holding Company, LLC, (“Wytrwal”) a leading international consulting firm and government contractor focused on finance, economics, and analytics in the global emerging markets is pleased to announce its participation in the third annual Future of Air and Space Conference sponsored by the Upstate Capital Association of New York during 12-14 July 2023.
The Conference will be held in the Innovare Advancement Center, part of the Griffiss Institute and the Air Force Research Laboratory (“AFRL”), on the flight line of the former Griffiss Air Force Base in New York’s stunning Mohawk River Valley, at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains, right next door to the new silicon-carbide semiconductor chip manufacturing fab of Wolfspeed.
“This will be our 5th major defense investment conference this year. It is a great venture capital event for our firm to meet with institutional investors, and the key decision makers in high technology firms, aerospace and defense companies,” commented Edmund L. Luzine, Jr., a former Army intelligence officer with the U.S. Special Operations Command (“SOCOM”) and a former emerging markets investment banker, and the Founder and CEO of Wytrwal.
Wytrwal will meet with corporate executives and technology experts to highlight its services and expertise in the global emerging markets, as well as its ability to provide strategic advice to clients during a period of market volatility and global instability generated by 9.5 year-long war between Russia and Ukraine, conflict in Sudan, Venezuela, Afghanistan, Syria, and other Asian nations, including skirmishes between Chinese and Indian forces in the austere environment of the disputed Himalayas.
“The turmoil in global financial markets and banking challenges on Wall Street generated by rising interest rates and high inflation, the potential nationalization of privately-owned corporate lithium assets in Chile, a trade war with China, and volatility in the energy and commodity markets provide multiple opportunities for the firm to advise and assist its global clientele here on the grounds at the former Griffiss Air Force base, where many of the nation’s B-52 bombers were based,” Luzine added.
Wytrwal served as an expert consultant, a sub-contractor, at SOCOM Headquarters on MacDill Air Force Base to assist Special Operations Forces in their understanding of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) and the surrounding frontiers of emerging market nations.
Wytrwal Industries is excited to participate in the Future of Air and Space Conference and looks forward to connecting with other private equity and venture capital investors, industry professionals, and tech firms, and sharing its expertise and insights on the global emerging markets.
