We were delighted to be invited as the charity of choice to the Engineers Australia end of year dinner, where our CEO got to hear all about the new Sunshine Coast Rail project and talk about the difference an old phone can make in the safety of those escaping domestic violence.
A great night at the Engineers Australia Sunshine Coast End of Year Dinner with some of the KBR, Inc. team! Great to hear about two major rail projects on the Sunshine Coast from Genevieve De Michele and Geraint Roberts! Great also to hear from Ashton Wood about the work he and his team are doing at DV Safe Phone!
