🚨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.
