Latvia Turns to Tech Startups to Boost Military Capabilities

Original: Latvia Taps Emerging Tech Startups to Scale Local Military Capabilities

Latvia is working with emerging technology startups to scale up its local defence industry and military capabilities. The Baltic nation, which borders Russia, has been seeking to strengthen domestic defence production and innovation. The move reflects a broader push among NATO's eastern flank members to rapidly expand defence capacity, drawing on civilian tech sectors to meet growing security demands.

Why now: Ongoing security concerns in the Baltic region are driving interest in Latvia's defence innovation efforts.
