2023 was the year that NGRT left the station and really accelerated our mission to bring our technology to the global market. The increase in investment and business cases, has created a snowball effect, and the NGRT is upscaling at an incredible rate.


Let’s look at how the biggest year in the company’s history to date unfolded ...
