ISDEFE Innova recognises Panssari as a dual-use security start-up

Panssari Recognized by ISDEFE Innova as a Strategic Startup in Dual-Use Technologies for Defense and Critical Infrastructure

The Ministry of Defense’s innovation ecosystem, through ISDEFE Innova, has recognized Panssari as one of Spain’s leading startups in dual-use technologies, applied artificial intelligence, and advanced protection systems for critical infrastructure and operational environments.

For professionals in the defense sector, this recognition is not merely a public acknowledgment: it constitutes technical and institutional validation that integrates our technology into the map of strategic capabilities the Ministry considers a priority for the coming years.

This inclusion confirms Panssari as a strategic startup for strengthening national technological autonomy, increasing operational resilience, and contributing to the modernization of defense systems through advanced solutions developed and manufactured in Spain.

Dual-purpose technology designed for real-world operational environments

The Panssari platform has been specifically developed to address challenges in both defense and critical civilian infrastructure. Our system integrates:

  • Advanced AI detection capable of identifying people, vehicles, anomalies, and risk patterns.
  • High-precision RF/UWB geolocation, useful for access control, tracking in restricted areas, and movement analysis.
  • Proprietary hardware that is robust, modular, and capable of operating in demanding environmental conditions.
  • Edge computing processing to reduce latency and ensure operational continuity.
  • Integration with existing systems, reducing friction in deployments at bases, logistics facilities, or port environments.

This combination enables Command & Control capabilities, intelligent perimeter protection, internal security, operational traceability, and automated surveillance with a high level of reliability.

Why this recognition is important for defense

ISDEFE Innova selecciona proyectos que puedan contribuir a la autonomía estratégica, la soberanía tecnológica y la modernización de las capacidades de defensa españolas. La inclusión de Panssari responde a:

ISDEFE Innova selects projects that can contribute to strategic autonomy, technological sovereignty, and the modernization of Spain’s defense capabilities. Panssari’s inclusion is based on:

  • Our ability to develop dual-use technology made in Spain, with in-house development and intellectual property.
  • Our contribution to enhancing security at facilities deemed strategic.
  • The potential for integration into land, naval, or logistics operations, thanks to the modular design of our systems.
  • Alignment with European priorities such as resilience, digitalization, and the protection of critical assets.

For the Armed Forces, this translates into new tactical and strategic capabilities that can be implemented in the short term without disruptive investments in infrastructure.

A Technology Partner for Mission-Critical Operations

Panssari currently works with public entities and strategic operators at ports, hydroelectric power plants, and major infrastructure sites, enabling the validation of technology in complex environments before deploying it in military scenarios.

This approach allows us to offer:

  • Mature, field-proven solutions.
  • Rapid scalability for bases or temporary deployments.
  • Integration of multiple sensors and cameras under a single control panel.
  • Reduced operational burden thanks to AI that prioritizes alerts and eliminates false positives.
  • Enhanced security through 24/7 real-time analytics.

For defense, this means having a capability multiplier adaptable to surveillance operations, facility protection, logistics, or tactical mobility.

Looking to the Future

Our presence at ISDEFE Innova opens the door to collaborations with the Ministry’s units, commands, and technology centers. At Panssari, we will continue to develop high-value-added technology aimed at:

  • Improving the security of the country’s critical infrastructure.
  • Enhancing dual-use capabilities applicable to military missions.
  • Strengthening Spain’s strategic autonomy in AI, sensor technology, and systems engineering.

Because we believe in a future where technology developed in Spain directly contributes to protection, control, and operational superiority in the most demanding environments.
