National Defence Program
UniLab Defence is Latvia's National Defence Tech Accelerator for startups building next-generation defence technology and ready to scale internationally. We support TRL 3-5 startups working on autonomy, uncrewed systems, and enabling technologies across aerial, ground, and maritime domains, connecting them directly with military end users, mentors, and a strong partner network.
Innovation has always meant solving the world's hardest problems - today, that includes resilience, security, and defence.
UniLab Defence 2026 Challenge: Autonomy for Superiority
The war on NATO's border has made one thing brutally clear: numbers can beat technology. Cheap drones, jamming, and sheer mass are already offsetting the West's edge.
The answer isn't more drones. It's smarter ones - autonomy that keeps working when GPS is jammed, comms are down, and the network is under attack

We're looking for startups building:

Autonomy that survives jamming and GPS denial
AI that makes faster decisions than the enemy
Air, land, and sea systems that talk to each other
Manufacturing that can keep up when things get destroyed
If you're building this - we want to hear from you.
