PORTFOLIO

TACTICAL & CIVIL VALUE

Reduces risk for demining personnel and civilians by moving detection from the ground into the air.

Increases the tempo of mapping and prioritising clearance efforts accross large areas.

Creates data-based documentation over time - useful for reporting and donor dialogue.

STRATEGIC RELEVANCE FOR CASTRUM

Supports CASTRUM's ambition to connect line-of-contact experience with scalable, exportable solutions.

Strong dual-use profile with both security and humanitarian impact.

Potential "flagship" project in dialogue with funds, EU programmes and public-private partnerships (PPP).

CASTRUM - Investment framing

DreamSensor is a central part of CASTRUM's strategy to combine frontline Ukrainian experience with mine threats with Danish technology development and EU-compatible production, creating a scalable platform for post-conflict recovery.

INVESTMENT SNAPSHOT & TECHNOLOGICAL PROFILE

TECHNOLOGY READINESS LEVEL

System concept defined and technology building blocks tested - progressing towards a field pilot in an operational environment (exact TRL to be locked after pilot).

COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES

Airborne detection reduces risk to personnel, increases area coverage per hour and enables rapid scanning of large areas with documented data.

PRIMARY USE CASES

Humanitarian demining (plastic mines included), UXO mapping, clearance planning for infrastructure, agriculture, energy and civilian settlements after conflict.

PORTFOLIO COMPANY: DREAM SENSOR

Airborne sensor system for fast and safe mapping of landmines including plastic mines and unexploded ordnance (UXO), designed to significantly accelerate humanitarian demining after the war.

Investment case: Scalable technology for global demining clearance.

Focus: Field pilot in Ukraine & industrialization within the CASTRUM setup.

INVESTMENT CASE

Direct exposure to a rapidly growing global need for demining, with a scalable, data-driven product that can be sold as a system + service (SaaS/ "sensing-as-a-service" models).

MARKETS & CUSTOMERS

National authorities, international organizations, demining NGOs, defence, civil protection agencies and private contractors in post-conflict regions.

PROJECT & STRUCTURAL DATA

FUNDING, GO-TO-MARKET & GOVERNANCE

DreamSensor is envisioned as a capex-light product for end users, where drones and sensors are combined with software, data analytics and training.

Funding can be a mix of equity, grants (EU/ innovation/ dual-use and public programs.

Go-to-market via pilots with a smaller number of strong reference customers (authorities/ NGOs, follwed by scaling.

Governance designed to handle export control, data security and collaboration with both military and civil actors.

The project can be closely integrated with CASTRUM's other activites in Ukraine and Europe, including the use of existing legal, financial and industrial infrastructure.
