Wirepas is the 20th member of DDE!
Innovations are fuelled by a pursuit of improvement and introducing novel ideas. By joining the DDE, Wirepas will bring their innovations from the civil sector to the defence markets.
In a core Wirepas is a software company. They provide a comprehensive connectivity suite for affordable massive IoT deployments. Their partners integrate it into their hardware products and solutions for end customers. They also provide the world’s first and only non-cellular 5G connectivity network for enterprise IoT.
Oula Välipakka, the Head of Partner Growth from Wirepas is excited about expanding their network at DDE: ”We have seen an increasing international interest in the military for de-centralized networks. Our technology that enables infraless large-scale networks combined with the offerings from the other DDE members will definitely be able to answer to this demand.”
Each member of DDE contributes their own unique perspectives and strengths. With Wirepas joining our ranks, we enhance the ecosystem with cutting-edge mesh connectivity skills and technologies. We look forward to having Wirepas as an active member of the ecosystem. New viewpoints challenge existing norms, prompting innovation, and ensuring that we continue to thrive. As we welcome Wirepas to DDE we eagerly await the potential operations and projects that will arise. The exchange of knowledge, resources, and expertise can lead to ground-breaking advancements that benefit all members involved.
” We are excited that Wirepas wants to take a leap towards the defence markets and explore the use of dual-use technologies. DDE already has a lot of prominent companies, and we are enthusiastic about expanding our horizons. By having Wirepas in the ecosystem we have one more company to bridge the gap between public and private sectors, especially in the defence field.” Says Jarmo Puputti the Ecosystem Lead of DDE
In the rapidly evolving landscape of defence and security, dual-use technologies are gaining prominence as a game-changing paradigm. Innovations that have applications in both civilian and military domains, hold immense potential, making them a driving force in shaping the future of defence business. Dual-use technologies enable defence businesses to adapt quickly to these evolving challenges. A technology designed for civilian purposes can be rapidly adapted or repurposed for defence use, providing flexibility and agility in responding to emerging threats.
As we work together, share ideas, and collaborate on projects, we are confident that the possibilities are boundless. The power of a group of organisations, each contributing their own strengths, is the key to thriving in the complex world of defence.
