Local innovation strengthens AUKUS partnership
Autonomous WA defence tech strengthens AUKUS partnership
More than 20 WA businesses will travel to London for the Defence and Security Equipment International (DSEI)—one of the largest defence conferences in the world.
The event, held between 9-12 September, will also provide WA businesses with the opportunity to connect with industry heavyweights including the United Kingdom's State Secretary of Defence John Healey and Royal Navy First Sea Lord General Sir Gwyn Jenkins KCB OBE RM.
Greenroom Robotics is one of the WA companies, which will showcase at DSEI after receiving approval to export its AI software to the UK and United States helping to fast-track AUKUS defence assets.
Greenroom Robotics specialises in world-leading navigation and situational awareness software that converts any ship or boat into a fully autonomous, AI-enabled vessel.
Greenroom's AI software is already transforming vessels large and small with partners across AUKUS nations such as Royal Australian Navy, Austal, EGS Survey, and UK-based SubSea Craft. It has also successfully been trialled by the US Department of Defence.
During the overseas mission, WA Government representatives will also travel to France for high-level discussions with NATO defence officials about how WA industry can help bolster defence manufacturing across Europe.
