Workstations and equipment in the Fortress prototyping lab

FLEET 0.5

Passive, infrastructure-independent surveillance sensors.

PILOT COHORT

Teams from across Europe chose Lappeenranta to build their prototypes. They began Fleet 0.5 with hands-on mentoring from people who knew the defence and security field.

They built in our own prototyping lab and tested outdoors, including in conditions with GPS interference. Fleet 0.5 was a step towards making Lappeenranta the best place in Finland to build a defence tech startup.

FLEET 0.5 DEMO DAY

See the teams' prototypes live in Lappeenranta on 13 November 2026.
