VOLATUS AEROSPACE PARTNERS WITH UCAN BRAVE TECH TO ADVANCE SOVEREIGN CANADA-UKRAINE DEFENCE TECHNOLOGIES
Volatus Aerospace Inc. has signed a memorandum of understanding with UCan Brave Tech Centre, a Canada-Ukraine defence innovation organization, to advance collaborative innovation, commercialization and industrial partnership development between Canada and Ukraine.
The MOU establishes a framework to accelerate the identification, validation and operational transition of emerging Canadian and Ukrainian defence and dual-use technologies, with a focus on autonomous systems, CUAS, ISR, resilient communications and autonomy software. It also represents an initial step toward building a trusted coalition of Canadian industrial partners capable of scaling and commercializing technologies developed and battle tested in Ukraine for allied defence and security applications.
"This MOU reflects the growing importance of trusted international collaboration in strengthening sovereign capability and accelerating operationally relevant innovation," said Glen Lynch, chief executive officer of Volatus. "Ukraine has demonstrated extraordinary technological adaptability under conflict environments while Canada offers advanced industrial capacity, manufacturing expertise and commercialization pathways. Together, these complementary strengths create meaningful opportunities to accelerate proven technologies into scalable operational capabilities."
Under the MOU, Volatus will provide its expertise in autonomous systems, manufacturing, systems integration, commercialization, operational deployment and life cycle support. Through its established operational footprint across Canada, including its emerging defence-focused manufacturing and system integration capabilities in Mirabel, Que., and its international market reach, Volatus will support the advancement and scaling of validated technologies from Ukraine for defence and security applications.
UCan Brave Tech Centre, as the bilateral architect of the collaboration, will lead strategic engagement with Canadian and Ukrainian stakeholders across industry, academia, government and the innovation ecosystem. The organization will support engagement initiatives, partnership development, validation pathways and commercialization co-ordination aimed at accelerating binational technology cooperation and operational adoption.
"Our mission is to build the innovation corridor that connects Ukraine's battle-tested ingenuity with Canada's industrial depth and to make that connection structured, trusted and durable. This MOU is the first proof point," said Yuliia Marcinkoski, chief executive officer of UCan Brave Tech. "UCan Brave Tech was established to architect exactly this kind of partnership: connecting Ukraine's operational experience and technological ingenuity with Canada's manufacturing capacity, commercialization expertise and industrial ecosystem. Volatus Aerospace is an outstanding first partner in that mission, and we look forward to building on this foundation."
The collaboration reflects a shared commitment to advancing sovereign capability development, resilient supply chains, allied interoperability and operationally relevant innovation in response to evolving defence and security requirements.
The MOU also aligns with broader Canadian industrial and defence priorities, including strengthening domestic technological capacity, supporting innovation ecosystems and expanding co-operation with trusted international partners in strategically important sectors.
