Local expertise for U.S. Growth
MyDefence marked a significant milestone today by opening a new R&D office in Oklahoma, further strengthening the state’s role as a hub for advanced defense technology.
In the heart of Oklahoma, MyDefence has opened a new office in close
collaboration with Oklahoma Chamber of Commerce and its Department for
Aerospace and Defense. The strategic move aims to enhance technology intended to address national security challenges and preserve critical infrastructure, as well as getting access to Department of Defense (DoD) projects.
Oklahoma has quickly established itself as a hub for Counter-UAS Center of
Excellences utilizing resources across the state of Oklahoma and works with academia, industry and federal agencies to coordinate and evaluate technological innovation.
MyDefence is now set to become an active part of an ecosystem that enables
collaboration of resources to develop, test and refine counter-drone technology.
MyDefence has successfully created a solid position in the C-UAS market as the
leading provider of wearable and integrated solutions to protect humans, vehicles, and critical assets against malicious use of drones. Earlier this year, products from MyDefence were chosen in a historic procurement agreement signed between COBBS BELUX, a company specializing in marketing and selling defense and military equipment to NATO armed services, and the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA).
Oklahoma, a key hub for counter-drone technology and research, serves as an ideal location for MyDefence’s R&D efforts. This creates a strong synergy between the company’s mission to expand its US operations and the state’s expertise in unmanned aerial systems defense.
To mark the official opening of the new R&D office, H.R.H. Prince Joachim, Defense Industry Attaché in Washington D.C. attended the event alongside the Danish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense, Troels Lund Poulsen.
MyDefence will expand its US operations and hire more people in the coming years and contribute to the American counter-UAS technology innovation.
