Defense-Technology Scouting & Matchmaking

We map Ukraine's battlefield-proven defense technology — and connect it to the partners who need it.

SCANOM is an independent research and facilitation firm. We continuously survey Ukraine's defense-tech ecosystem, vet the projects worth a serious look, and broker introductions to qualified international buyers, integrators and investors.

01 — WHAT WE DO

A single, accountable channel between Ukrainian builders and global buyers.

Ukraine produces some of the world's fastest-iterating defense technology. The problem is rarely the engineering — it is discovery, trust and access. That is the gap SCANOM closes.

/ 01

Field Research & Scouting

We continuously map the Ukrainian defense-tech landscape — established manufacturers, R&D teams and frontline-born startups — and maintain a structured, current picture of who builds what.

/ 02

Technical Vetting & Due Diligence

Each project is assessed for technology readiness, production capacity, real-world validation and the credibility of its team — so partners evaluate a shortlist, not a haystack.

/ 03

Matchmaking & Introductions

We connect vetted Ukrainian projects with the right counterparties abroad: integrators, distributors, government buyers, primes and investors — and stay in the loop until both sides are talking.

/ 04

Access & Compliance Navigation

We help both sides navigate export-control regimes, procurement frameworks, certification and localization pathways, so promising contact turns into a workable agreement.

02 — WHY UKRAINE

The most demanding test environment in the world is also its most productive R&D lab.

Technology that survives in Ukraine has been validated where it counts — against a peer adversary, under electronic warfare pressure, and on a development cycle measured in weeks rather than years.

For international partners, that means access to capability that is mature, cost-efficient and already proven in the field — not a roadmap promise.

SCANOM exists to make that capability legible, accessible and trustworthy to partners who operate to Western standards.

03 — DOMAINS WE COVER

Where we focus our research.

Coverage spans the defense and dual-use technology stack. Each project is screened for legitimate end-use before any introduction is made.

D-01Counter-UAS & EWDetection, jamming and electronic-warfare countermeasures against unmanned threats.
D-02Unmanned SystemsAerial, ground and maritime platforms and their subsystems.
D-03ISR & SensingReconnaissance, optics, radar and situational-awareness payloads.
D-04C2 & SoftwareCommand-and-control, data fusion, mapping and battlefield software.
D-05Secure CommunicationsResilient, contested-environment connectivity and data links.
D-06Robotics & AutonomyAutonomy stacks, AI navigation and unmanned logistics.
D-07Demining & EODHumanitarian and operational mine-clearance technology.
D-08Power & EnergyField power, batteries and resilient energy systems.
D-09Logistics & SupportSustainment, manufacturing and dual-use enabling technology.
04 — HOW IT WORKS

From discovery to a working partnership.

A disciplined, four-stage process that protects everyone's time — and their confidentiality.

01

Discovery

We scout and catalogue Ukrainian projects against our partners' real requirements and priorities.

02

Validation

Technical, commercial and end-use vetting filters the field down to a defensible shortlist.

03

Connection

We make warm, contextualized introductions and facilitate the first conversations directly.

04

Acceleration

We support negotiation, compliance and localization until a deal is realistically on the table.
