CEO at TERASi
Terasi
Terasi builds pocket-sized millimeter-wave radios that establish physically secure, unjammable data links at gigabit speeds over distances exceeding 100 km. The hardware deploys in minutes on tripods or drones, enabling tactical communication networks when satellites, GPS, and conventional spectrum are contested or unavailable. This makes it particularly suited for European defense forces facing a critical connectivity gap.

Problem
Modern defense and security operations depend on transmitting large volumes of data securely and in real-time between units, platforms, and assets, especially in contested environments where conventional infrastructure, satellites, GPS, and radio-frequency spectrum may be unavailable or actively jammed. Existing communication solutions are omnidirectional, operate in a narrow frequency range, and are easily intercepted, leaving military and emergency forces without reliable connectivity in critical situations.
Solution
TERASi provides a wireless communication system built on patented AirCore technology that operates in the millimeter-wave frequency domain, enabling physically secure, highly directional data links that cannot be jammed or intercepted by conventional means. The pocket-sized radios deliver gigabit-speed connectivity covering distances over 100 km, with wireless links transmitting data up to 50 times faster than satellite systems. Designed for rapid deployment, these units are compatible with any tactical platform and can be set up in minutes on tripods or drones, creating resilient communication networks in challenging environments. The system connects military forces, emergency responders, and critical infrastructure operations when fixed networks are unavailable or compromised, ensuring sovereign and uncompromised data transmission.
Target Audience
Primary customers are European defense forces, defense primes, emergency responders, and critical infrastructure operators requiring highly secure, high-capacity data links in contested or infrastructure-poor environments.
