Ep. 31: Zef Malik on Securing Your Supply Chain with Stronger Partnerships, ASICs and Automated Reball

Spirit's VP of Business Development Zef Malik is focused on the future movement of the aerospace and defense markets.

While this year has brought allocation, price increases, and supply chain disruptions, Zef shares a forward-thinking view of where and how advanced manufacturing and cutting-edge tech will be growing across the United States.

Zef's belief is that to really secure the supply chain, A&D companies need to grow closer partnerships with their suppliers. This is why Spirit has invested in bringing test services and circuit card assembly under our distribution umbrella to deliver ready-to-use parts to our customers.
