“An IPO represents a substantial milestone for the company, delivering the funding needed to support BirdDog’s next chapter of growth, its strategic vision and technology roadmap,” he commented.

“We are highly confident of our team’s ability to continue to solidify our position as the global leader in NDI enabled video technologies and we look forward to delivering on products, technology and sales through the balance of FY22 and well beyond.”

On its first day of trade, shares in BirdDog were up 1.45 per cent on the market and were trading at 70 cents.
