ZeroPhase has raised €5.8 million in an oversubscribed seed financing round to accelerate the rollout of its software-defined communication technology for unmanned defence systems.
The round was led by BlueYard Capital and supported by a group of experienced business angels.
The new funding will be used to further develop ZeroPhase’s adaptive communication layer, designed to deliver reliable, low-latency connectivity for unmanned platforms operating across air, land, and maritime environments, while ensuring full sovereign control over critical data links.
Communications as a decisive factor in modern defence
Unmanned systems rely on constant, high-quality data transmission to operate effectively. Video streams, telemetry, and command signals must function under conditions that include interference, jamming, and degraded infrastructure. As the number of deployed unmanned platforms continues to rise, resilient communications have become a strategic requirement rather than a supporting feature.
ZeroPhase addresses this challenge with adaptive data links that dynamically respond to electronic warfare, signal disruption, and hostile interference. By continuously adjusting to changing conditions, the system maintains operational continuity in environments where conventional links often fail.
According to the company’s leadership, the objective is to ensure that communications remain dependable even in the most contested scenarios, forming a trusted backbone for next-generation unmanned operations.
Proven technology in real-world conditions
ZeroPhase’s technology is already operating at scale, supporting thousands of unmanned missions on a daily basis in active conflict zones. Extensive field deployment has demonstrated the system’s ability to sustain performance under heavy jamming and electronic attack, conditions where unprotected links can be disrupted within seconds.
This real-world validation differentiates the platform from lab-tested or prototype-only solutions, providing confidence that the technology can perform under the most demanding operational constraints.
Growing demand for secure, adaptive data links
As unmanned systems proliferate globally, defence experts increasingly highlight communications as one of the most vulnerable elements of modern platforms. Without adaptive protection, data links remain exposed to advanced electronic warfare capabilities.
By embedding resilience and adaptability directly into the communication layer, ZeroPhase aims to set a new standard for how unmanned systems connect, coordinate, and execute missions in contested environments.
Expansion plans following the raise
With the new capital, ZeroPhase plans to scale its engineering and signal-processing teams, deepen collaboration with European defence and aerospace partners, and extend its communication framework to additional mission types and operational domains.
The company is also preparing its platform for broader deployment across allied defence ecosystems, supporting the growing need for interoperable yet sovereign communication solutions.
