RC Fornax chair David Hitchcock talks board refresh, growth strategy & defence outlook

RC Fornax PLC (AIM:RCFX) non-executive chair David Hitchcock talked with Proactive about his recent appointment and what it signals for the company’s next phase of growth. Hitchcock, who has been on the board since the IPO, brings a combination of capital markets expertise and deep military background to the chair role. He highlighted RC Fornax’s positioning as a defence consultancy during a time of increased global defence spending. “We are very innovative… and I think the board is really very strong now,” he said, adding that the board’s refreshed composition balances operational, defence, and financial expertise. Hitchcock discussed the additions of Andrew McInerney, a former Special Forces commando with growth company experience, and Chris Brooks, the firm’s managing director and engineering head, who has now joined the board to bring operational insight directly to leadership decisions. The company is aiming to deepen institutional investor engagement, strengthen customer relationships, and position itself to take advantage of growing demand in the defence sector. Hitchcock also noted that a strong share price would allow RC Fornax to capitalise on new opportunities as they arise. For more interviews and updates, visit Proactive's YouTube channel.
