Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) announced the formation of SPAI Ventures LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary established to evaluate and pursue selective strategic investments and collaborations with Ukrainian and other international technology developers. Created in coordination with Ukrainian entrepreneurs, defense professionals, and local stakeholders, SPAI Ventures is intended to accelerate innovation in the defense technology sector by identifying battle-tested hardware and software solutions that may complement Safe Pro’s patented Safe Pro Object Threat Detection (SPOTD) AI image analysis platform and its U.S.-manufactured ballistic protection products, while supporting evolving requirements of U.S. and NATO defense customers, allied governments, and humanitarian demining and reconstruction organizations.
The move signals a strategic expansion for Safe Pro Group, a mission-driven technology company delivering AI-enabled security and defense solutions. Through cutting-edge platforms like SPOTD, Safe Pro provides advanced situational awareness tools for defense, humanitarian, and homeland security applications globally. It is a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions specializing in drone imagery processing leveraging commercially available “off-the-shelf” drones with its proprietary machine learning and computer vision technology to enable rapid identification of explosives threats, providing a much safer and more efficient alternative to traditional human-based analysis methods.
Built on a cloud-based ecosystem and powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), Safe Pro Group’s scalable platform is targeting multiple markets that include commercial, government, law enforcement and humanitarian sectors where its Safe Pro AI software, Safe-Pro USA protective gear and Airborne Response drone-based services can work in synergy to deliver safety and operational efficiency. The formation of SPAI Ventures aims to enhance this ecosystem by integrating externally developed, combat-proven technologies. The latest news and updates relating to SPAI are available in the company’s newsroom at http://ibn.fm/SPAI.
This initiative underscores the growing importance of leveraging international innovation, particularly from conflict zones like Ukraine, to address modern defense and security challenges. By focusing on Ukrainian technology developers, SPAI Ventures taps into a pool of expertise refined under real-world conditions, potentially accelerating the deployment of effective solutions for NATO allies and humanitarian organizations. The subsidiary’s operations are expected to facilitate technology transfer and collaboration, strengthening supply chains and operational capabilities in critical sectors.
