Access to Strategic Defense Markets

As citizens and residents of the U.S., EU, and Ukraine, we operate at the intersection of the world’s most active defense innovation zones, with the clearances, speed, and credibility others lack.

The Threat is Now. The Market is Late.

Russia, China, and Iran are deploying swarms of low-cost drones at scale, overwhelming traditional defenses. Nations are using million-dollar interceptors against $1,000 threats. Scalable, AI-powered autonomy is yesterday’s missing capability.
