SCEPTRE

Labrys Technologies has joined SCEPTRE, the UK Sovereign Technology Stack. Labrys addresses a foundational challenge: as networked and autonomous systems become central to how the UK operates, the ability to verify what is real, who sent it, where it came from, whether it has been altered, becomes the infrastructure layer upon which everything else depends. “The SCEPTRE consortium represents exactly the kind of approach the UK needs — proven sovereign technology companies working together to deliver capability that those on the front line can actually use, at a pace that matters. The next generation of networked and autonomous systems will only be as effective as the verification infrastructure beneath them. Axiom exists to provide that layer — ensuring that when decisions are being made at speed, the information underpinning them is authenticated and the communications carrying them are secure. We’re proud to contribute to that mission.” August Lersten (August L.), CEO of Labrys Technologies Read the full press release here: https://hubs.li/Q04749zq0 #SovereignCapability #DefenceTech #C2 #Innovation #SMEs #IndustrialStrategy #DigitalTargetingWeb | Hadean, 2iC Limited, Vizgard, Kraken Technology Group, Evolve Dynamics, ACUA Ocean

Last week, SCEPTRE partners Evolve Dynamics, ACUA Ocean, Vizgard and Hadean came together for a live experiment in Plymouth. ACUA Ocean’s USV Pioneer was deployed, while Evolve Dynamics’ Sky Mantis 2 UAS conducted coordinated approaches to combine maritime presence with agile aerial capability, with the concept extending to include Vizgard's AI-enabled asset identification with a live feed through 2iC Limited into Hadean's dominAI - a showcase of SCEPTRE's integrated C2 ecosystem and frontline capability. Together, we are greater than the sum of our parts.

MoD Delivers on SME Commitment as SCEPTRE Is Downselected on DDAD Framework The SCEPTRE consortium has been downselected onto the UK Ministry of Defence’s Digital Decision Accelerators for Defence (DDAD) framework. DDAD is designed to accelerate the adoption of advanced digital decision-making across Defence, and the downselection of SCEPTRE is a clear signal of the MoD’s commitment to sovereign, SME-led capability that can scale at pace.

We’re pleased to welcome ACUA Ocean to SCEPTRE, the UK Sovereign Technology Stack. Plymouth-based and founded in 2020, ACUA is committed to accelerating British sovereign dual-use capability, bringing effect-based maritime ISR payloads and advanced vessel management technology to the UK sovereign ecosystem. “ACUA is a proudly British SME designing and developing cutting edge autonomous solutions. Joining the SCEPTRE technology stack is a natural fit in our pursuit of developing world-class sovereign capability.” - Mike Tinmouth, COO, ACUA Ocean Read the full press release here: https://hubs.li/Q040RT8m0 #SovereignCapability #DualUse #MaritimeISR #AutonomousSystems #USV #DefenceTech #C2 #Innovation #SMEs #IndustrialStrategy #DigitalTargetingWeb | Hadean, 2iC Limited, Vizgard, Kraken Technology Group, Evolve Dynamics

📢 We’re thrilled to share that Vizgard has been selected to join the NATO DIANA 2026 Challenge Programme cohort! Selected under the Autonomy and Unmanned Systems challenge area, our hybrid edge-to-cloud solution (FortifAI + UnifAI) enables partners to deploy, monitor and continuously improve fleets of AI-enabled autonomous systems at scale across land, air and sea. Over the next six months, we will work closely with DIANA’s global network of experts, mentors and test centres to refine our approach and align it with operational needs. We will also explore DIANA’s Rapid Adoption Service, which enables Allies to trial innovator prototypes in operational settings and, where successful, provides a pathway towards procurement across NATO bodies and the 32 member states. The programme will help us advance technical readiness for this new hybrid concept and support technology validation through access to world-class test centres. We’re looking forward to working with end users, UxV and C-UxV providers to support adoption across NATO and Allied forces.

Great discussion to kick off the Royal United Services Institute Military Technology Conference today. Our CCO, Vladi Shlesman, discussed the challenges of building 'any sensor, any shooter' networks and how Hadean, through the SCEPTRE UK SME Sovereign Stack, is helping to solve them. #DefenceInnovation #DefenceTech #ArtificialIntelligence
