Three Abu Dhabi AI startups, TACTICAAI, SIRBAI, and CENTAURE.AI, powered by technologies developed by the Technology Innovation Institute (TII), debuted at Eurosatory Paris 2026. These startups offer operational AI capabilities for decision intelligence, security operations, and coordinated autonomous systems in defence and security. Their launch supports UAE EDGE Group's European expansion and aligns with deepening UAE-France strategic partnerships in artificial intelligence and defence. Why it matters: This development demonstrates the UAE's ability to translate advanced AI research into deployable sovereign defence capabilities, strengthening international collaborations and expanding its global footprint in critical technology sectors.
