🚨Calling deep tech, dual-use innovators🚨

Interested in joining the DIANA programme?

We're excited to share that DIANA's latest Challenge Call will open next month. Successful candidates will become part of DIANA’s 2026 cohort of innovators.

DIANA formulates ‘Challenges’ based on the priorities of NATO Allied nations, the latest trends in emerging and disruptive technologies, and market potential.

Through DIANA’s Challenge Calls, innovators propose technologies that could address these challenges, which they then develop with feedback from end-users and potential buyers as they go through DIANA’s Accelerator Programme.

If you're an innovator with a game-changing technology that could help address some of the world’s most complex and profound security challenges, make sure you follow the DIANA website  or the DIANA LinkedIn page for updates.

Autoship - a new and durable way of freight transport

Autoship is, as the name suggests, an acronym for autonomous ship. Just like with self-driving cars, the possibilities of an unmanned boat seem endless. It can create more efficient freight transport, around the clock deliveries and these are just a few of the examples. The project has two societal challenges.

At first, De Vlaamse Waterweg was a bit hesitant as their experience with FP7 or Horizon 2020 projects was limited and they had not been very successful up until then. The fact that they were already doing basic research on the topic of autonomous boats, and the administrative help of NCP FLanders helped De Vlaamse waterweg to cross the line and get involved.
