MAG has appointed retired Vice Adm. Paul Maddison to its advisory board.
“We are honored to welcome Vice Admiral (Ret’d) Maddison to our advisory board. His extensive experience in defense, international relations, and leadership aligns perfectly with our strategy in the Indo-Pacific region,” said MAG CEO Joseph Reale.
Maddison brings with him an esteemed career in defense, international relations and academia, making him a valuable addition to the team as MAG continues to expand its capabilities and strategic initiatives throughout the Indo-Pacific region, the company said.
He recently served as the director of the University of New South Wales Defence Research Institute.
His military career comprised 37 years of service in the Canadian Armed Forces, with experience commanding at all levels at sea and ashore. In 2013, he retired as commander of the Royal Canadian Navy and later served as the high commissioner of Canada for Australia from 2015 to 2019.
“Addressing the increasing threats in the Indo-Pacific alongside our many allies and like-minded partners requires the implementation of new competitive advantage technologies across the all-domain operating environment, and I believe MAG is the right company poised at the right time to make a real difference in the region,” Maddison said.
