Exergy Solutions, a specialized subsidiary of Exergy21 in the unmanned aerial vehicle business, held a business conference to introduce new ventures.

Exergy Solutions presented on unmanned aerial vehicle defense systems and AI security systems. Currently, Exergy Solutions is collaborating with Fortem Technologies, a U.S.-based aviation security specialist.

Fortem Technologies possesses defense technology that detects illegal drones using AI software-equipped radar and then deploys autonomous drones to capture and neutralize them with nets. This technology allows drones to be retrieved intact, preventing secondary ground damage from debris and enabling post-incident analysis. It has been utilized in numerous international events, including the Russia-Ukraine war, the Qatar World Cup, and the Davos Forum.

At this conference, Jon Gruen, CEO of Fortem Technologies, and Magnus Wallmark, Vice President, attended in person to deliver presentations. Both companies also plan to jointly participate in the '2023 Unmanned System World Congress,' which begins on the same day, where they will operate a shared exhibition booth.

An Exergy Solutions representative stated, "During the exhibition, we will open a joint booth with Fortem to promote anti-drone products," adding, "We are continuously discussing new business directions where both companies can create synergy."

Meanwhile, Exergy21 is pursuing anti-drone and AI defense businesses as part of its business diversification strategy. To this end, it established Exergy Solutions, a specialized subsidiary for the unmanned aerial vehicle business, in April.
