Funding of €5M obtained by QuadSAT for advancement in Radio Frequency (RF) Positioning Technology
QuadSAT Raises €5 Million for Military-Grade RF Geolocation Technology
QuadSAT, a Danish startup based in Odense, has secured an additional €5 million in a Series A extension round, led by Join Capital and North Ventures, to accelerate its development of RF geolocation technology for electronic warfare and modern battlefield intelligence 1, 2, 3, 5.
Founded in 2017, QuadSAT has emerged as a leader in drone-based RF testing, spectrum intelligence, and geolocation solutions, particularly for satellite communications (satcoms) and defense sectors 1, 2, [5].
QuadSAT's technology leverages drones to conduct precise, platform-agnostic RF testing and geolocation. This enables the detection and localization of RF signals, interference, and jamming devices, as well as on-site, fast, and comprehensive validation of satellite antennas and RF systems 1, 2, 3.
The funding will support the expansion of NATO-focused R&D programs and the growth of QuadSAT's engineering and testing teams 1, 2, 3.
QuadSAT's solutions align closely with emerging battlefield requirements as electronic warfare evolves. One of its standout offerings is its RF geolocation toolset, which is increasingly used to identify, locate, and analyze signals in contested environments 1, 2, 3.
QuadSAT's systems are gaining traction as spectrum conflicts and satellite interference become more frequent. The company aims to scale its manufacturing to meet increased demand 1, 2, 3.
QuadSAT's drones simulate satellite communication environments by carrying RF equipment capable of signal transmission, reception, and interference simulation. This innovative approach to RF geolocation and testing makes it a critical player in the future of aerospace defense 1, 2, 3.
QuadSAT's growing list of clients includes major defense contractors, satellite operators, and government agencies across Europe. The company recently demonstrated its drone-based testing solution operationally with the Danish Navy, highlighting its growing industry relevance and capability to operate in real military settings 4.
Jacob Stoner, CEO of Flyeye.io, a licensed commercial drone operator in Canada and a highly respected figure within the drone community, is also passionate about videography and the potential societal impact of drone technology advancements.
The funding underscores investor confidence in QuadSAT's relevance to modern defense needs, especially in satellite signal assurance and spectrum intelligence. QuadSAT's NATO alignment, expanding customer base, and advanced drone-based testing approach position it as a rising leader in defense-oriented spectrum management 1, 2, 3, [5].
