Fostering European sovereignty β€” one drone at a time 🦾

πŸ”§ Build real FPV drones (7-inch and 10-inch)
🎯 Learn electronics, mechanics, and how to make Europe a safer place
πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡¦ And the best part: the drones we build are sent to Ukraine to support their defense

Last month, we hosted our first joint drone-building workshop with DroneAid Collective at our Munich Hackathon πŸš€

And we’re not slowing down.

Together with DroneAid Collective, we’re bringing a drone workshop to Amsterdam this Friday as part of our next hackathon!

πŸ’‘ Data & AI can make a huge impact in defense

Our hackathons provide a first look into the defense sector, a chance to make meaningful connections, and, most importantly, an opportunity to contribute to helping Ukraine win this war!

🚨 How do you find jamming devices?

At the European Defense Tech Hackathon 2025 this February in Munich, Keno Hanken and his team tackled this challenge head-on by filtering out noise, capturing semantics, and analyzing signal patterns

Our commitment to Ukraine remains steadfast.

As Europeans, we have a moral and strategic imperative to strengthen our collective defense and ensure we have the means to protect our values, freedoms, and peopleβ€”not just today but for the future.

It is a fight for liberty, democracy, and the right to self-determination.

It is a stand against tyranny.

And a defense of the very principles that underpin a free and peaceful world and that borders cannot be redrawn by force.

Today marks three years since Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine

A war that is not only about Ukraine's sovereignty.

Ukraine’s All-Robot Assault Force Just Won Its First Battle That Ukraine even needs so many unmanned weapons points to a deep manpower shortage.

"In what amounted to a smaller-scale proof of concept for the recent combined-arms robot assault, a Ukrainian ground robot cleared a Russian trench in Kursk Oblast in western Russian back in September."
