Through ESA partnerships, Tekever has delivered advanced radar, communications, and AI-driven data systems for autonomous space missions and Earth observation.

Tekever announced a €100 million investment over five years and the creation of 100 jobs nationwide at the Choose France 2025 Summit.

Tekever is developing autonomous signal-processing architectures designed to operate in complex and contested environments for the DESIR program.

Tekever’s participation in DESIR strengthens its strategic positioning as a provider of autonomous technologies for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance across air and space domains.

Tekever will contribute autonomous systems and radio-frequency space technologies to France’s sovereign synthetic aperture radar satellite program.

The DESIR consortium adopts a New Space approach applied to a dual-use mission combining agile development cycles, rapid operational deployment, and cost efficiency through reuse of proven technologies.

DESIR aims to strengthen France’s long-term autonomy in space for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions.

Tekever has partnered with the European Space Agency on the Hera planetary defence mission and the PROBA-3 formation-flying mission.

Underwater security requires close cooperation among industry, governmental institutions, and armed forces for prevention and rapid response to accidental or hostile events.

Presiding over the underwater economy is a factor that will influence European industrial competitiveness and strategic autonomy.

Protection of submarine cables, energy pipelines, and communication systems requires sophisticated surveillance, intervention, and maintenance capabilities.

The underwater domain is a contested and vulnerable operational environment.

Fincantieri has the capacity to design and build complex vessels and platforms that integrate sensors, automation, and command systems for the underwater environment.

Pierroberto Folgiero is Amministratore Delegato and Direttore Generale of Fincantieri.

The underwater economy is an emerging strategic axis for national security and industrial development in Italy.

Dependency on submarine energy, digital, and logistic assets is increasing.

Europe can develop industrial leadership in the underwater economy by leveraging consolidated competencies and an advanced technological supply chain.

A significant portion of global energy and information flows depends on submarine networks, creating potential systemic risk from their vulnerability.

Submarine cables, energy pipelines, and communication systems are essential infrastructures for the global economy.

The underwater economy comprises industrial and technological activities aimed at ensuring security, resilience, and operational continuity in the underwater environment.
