After securing Government funding from the Sharing in Growth program (SIG) to improve its competitiveness and investing in additional engineering resources, Rockford is pleased to announce Chris Parsonage has joined the management team as Business Development Director.

Being a full SIG Beneficiary will bring £1.2 million pounds of Regional Growth Fund investment, which coupled to its recent investment in engineering allows Rockford to exploit additional resources to target, design & deliver new interconnect systems in to Defence, Aerospace and Industrial Customers”.
