HPQ Silicon’s “We Have Products” Moment: Building the Team to Bring Them to Market

Posted by Alavaro Coronel at 9:27 PM on Monday, July 13th, 2026

HPQ Silicon and its French affiliate Novacium have spent years developing advanced silicon based anode materials and next generation energy technologies. According to CEO Bernard Tourillon, multiple parties are now testing Novacium’s batteries, with preliminary data replicating results previously produced by the company. That technical progress is now being matched by a commercial expansion. HPQ and Novacium have partnered with Offset Links, an industrial and defence business development consultancy led by Jean Deschamps and Matthieu Deschamps, while appointing Jean-Louis Florentin, a former French Special Forces operator, to lead defence business development. The message from management is clear: HPQ believes it has products ready to be presented and is now building the team required to identify opportunities and advance discussions with prospective industrial and defence stakeholders.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Federal Support: HPQ secured up to $3 million from Natural Resources Canada in September 2025 to support the development of its first 50 tonne per year continuous silicon based anode material production system.

Commercial Leadership Expansion: HPQ and Novacium have partnered with Offset Links to identify prospective opportunities, facilitate introductions and support international business development discussions. Initial areas of focus are expected to include Australia and markets across the Middle East and North Africa.

Performance Based Alignment: Tourillon said the business development professionals are working on a success based model rather than traditional salaried arrangements. Under the formal Offset Links agreement, compensation, if any, will be determined separately for each approved business development assignment.

Battery Testing: Tourillon said multiple parties are testing Novacium’s batteries and that preliminary data from those tests is replicating results previously produced by the company.

Defence Experience Added: Jean-Louis Florentin will lead defence sector business development following a 15 year operational career in the French Special Forces. His experience includes working with defence contractors, military stakeholders and organizations such as Nexter, the French Army Technical Section and the Integrated Structure for the Operational Maintenance of Land Equipment.

International Reach: Jean Deschamps brings decades of experience across industry, infrastructure and defence, including more than 19 years advising the British Ministry of Defence on industrial offset programmes in Saudi Arabia. Matthieu Deschamps brings more than 20 years of experience in international business development, commercial negotiations, strategic growth and partnership development.

STRATEGIC IMPLICATIONS

Advanced technology does not sell itself. Industrial and defence customers need to understand how a product fits into their systems, what operational problem it addresses and what additional testing or development may be required before adoption. HPQ and Novacium are now building the commercial organization intended to help bridge that gap.

Offset Links will support international business development by identifying prospective opportunities, facilitating introductions and advancing discussions with potential industrial and institutional stakeholders. Its initial areas of focus are expected to include Australia and the MENA region, expanding HPQ’s and Novacium’s ability to pursue opportunities beyond France.

Florentin adds direct defence experience through his 15 year career in the French Special Forces and his work with technical teams, procurement organizations and military end users. His understanding of operational requirements and defence procurement is expected to support potential energy applications involving drones, embedded electronics and next generation autonomous systems.

Today’s announcement confirms that HPQ and Novacium are adding professionals with experience in international business development, strategic partnerships and defence procurement. This allows Novacium’s scientists and engineers to remain focused on research, testing and product development while the expanded commercial team advances market engagement.

Tourillon described the announcement as a transition from technology development toward increased commercial activity. In his words, the reason for making that transition now is simple: “We have products.”

CEO Bernard Tourillon, edited for clarity and length:

“We validated the technology. The technologies do work. We’re ready to go, and we now need the sales team to represent that because we can’t do everything. We have multiple people testing our batteries, and the preliminary data coming back from them is that they’re replicating what we have done. We’ve reached the point where we need people with the expertise, the contacts and the field knowledge to take this prime time.”

INVESTOR TAKEAWAY

HPQ Silicon and Novacium are building a dedicated business development platform around technologies that have largely been advanced by scientists, engineers and company executives. Offset Links brings decades of international industrial and defence experience, along with access to prospective stakeholders in markets including Australia and the MENA region. Jean-Louis Florentin adds 15 years of French Special Forces experience and direct knowledge of defence procurement, military requirements and operational environments.

These appointments do not represent signed customer contracts, confirmed procurement orders or guaranteed revenue. They represent the commercial infrastructure HPQ believes it now needs to turn technical progress into structured industrial and defence discussions.

HPQ enters this stage with federal support of up to $3 million for its planned 50 tonne per year silicon based anode material production system, Gen3 and Gen4 materials under development and multiple parties currently testing its battery technology. According to Tourillon, preliminary results from those tests are replicating results previously produced by Novacium, while some prospective parties are beginning to ask questions about potential production capacity.

The next step is execution. Offset Links and Florentin must identify the right opportunities, make the right introductions and help align the technologies with specific industrial and defence requirements.

There is no guarantee those efforts will result in completed business. However, management believes HPQ and Novacium have reached the point where their product portfolio is ready to be presented by professionals with the experience, relationships and market knowledge required to advance those discussions.

For shareholders, that is the significance of today’s announcement. HPQ is no longer building only the technology. It is building the team intended to bring it to market.

Draganfly Expands Defense Portfolio with Completion of Skip Dynamix Acquisition

Posted by Brittany McNabb at 3:11 PM on Thursday, June 11th, 2026

Acquisition Adds Fixed-Wing Drone Capability as Global Demand for Affordable Autonomous Systems Accelerates

The global defense landscape is evolving rapidly as military organizations seek affordable, scalable, and rapidly deployable unmanned systems. Against that backdrop, Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO | CSE: DPRO) has completed its acquisition of Skip Dynamix Corporation, a move that significantly expands the company’s defense portfolio and strengthens its position in one of the fastest-growing segments of the drone industry.

Issued on behalf of Draganfly Inc. 

Announced on June 11, 2026, the transaction brings Skip Dynamix’s fixed-wing drone technology into Draganfly’s growing ecosystem of autonomous aerial systems. The acquisition comes as governments, defense organizations, and security agencies increasingly prioritize low-cost unmanned aircraft capable of supporting a wide range of missions while remaining scalable for larger deployments.

For Draganfly, the acquisition represents more than the addition of a new product. It broadens the company’s capabilities at a time when demand for autonomous systems continues to expand across military, national security, and government markets worldwide.

Filling a Critical Capability Gap

For more than 25 years, Draganfly has built its reputation around drone innovation, serving sectors that include public safety, defense, industrial inspection, agriculture, mapping, and surveying.

Its existing defense portfolio includes platforms such as the Flex FPV, Apex, Commander 3XL, and Heavy Lift systems. With the acquisition of Skip Dynamix, the company now adds the Orca platform, a long-range, hand-launchable fixed-wing drone designed for affordability and rapid production.

The addition is strategically important because fixed-wing systems serve a different operational role than traditional multi-rotor drones. While multi-rotor platforms excel at hovering, precision operations, and vertical takeoff and landing, fixed-wing aircraft can typically cover greater distances and remain airborne longer.

According to Draganfly, the Orca platform complements its existing product lineup by addressing a capability gap within its broader defense offering.

Strengthening Positioning in a Growing Defense Market

The acquisition arrives amid rising global investment in autonomous military technologies.

Defense agencies are increasingly focused on systems that can be produced efficiently, deployed rapidly, and adapted to changing operational requirements. These trends have been particularly evident across NATO modernization initiatives, U.S. Department of War programs, and security efforts throughout the Indo-Pacific region.

Draganfly believes the transaction enhances its ability to participate in these opportunities by combining Skip Dynamix’s fixed-wing architecture with Draganfly’s existing strengths in:

  • AI-enabled autonomy
  • Advanced sensor integration
  • Manufacturing capabilities
  • Military-focused drone systems
  • Mission-specific technology development

The company stated that Skip Dynamix’s technologies will be integrated into its broader defense ecosystem, creating opportunities to deliver more comprehensive aerial solutions to customers.

Expanding Market Reach and Revenue Opportunities

In addition to technology advantages, the acquisition also expands Draganfly’s reach into new defense and government markets.

Skip Dynamix currently serves customers across defense, national security, government, and international sectors. As part of the transaction, Draganfly gains access to the company’s existing pipeline of opportunities surrounding the Orca platform.

Management also highlighted potential revenue synergies resulting from the combination. While no financial projections were disclosed, the company stated it believes the combined business can generate incremental revenue growth beyond Skip Dynamix’s standalone expectations.

Another key element of the transaction is talent retention. Skip Dynamix founders Jonathan Baron and Andrew Chapman will continue with the combined organization under employment agreements, providing continuity and specialized expertise in fixed-wing small unmanned aircraft systems.

Leadership Commentary Signals Long-Term Defense Focus

Draganfly CEO Cameron Chell described the acquisition as an important step toward addressing growing demand for affordable and scalable autonomous systems.

“We are excited to have completed this acquisition and to welcome the Skip Dynamix team to Draganfly,” said Chell. “This transaction positions us to meet growing global demand for affordable, scalable autonomous systems.”

The transaction follows a series of defense-related developments for Draganfly, including recent military-focused drone programs and continued expansion of its autonomous systems portfolio.

A Broader Defense Ecosystem Takes Shape

As autonomous technologies become increasingly important across modern defense operations, companies capable of offering multiple platform types may gain an advantage in addressing diverse mission requirements.

With the completion of the Skip Dynamix acquisition, Draganfly now combines multi-rotor systems, FPV platforms, heavy-lift capabilities, and fixed-wing aircraft under a single defense-focused portfolio.

The addition of the Orca platform broadens the company’s product offering while reinforcing its strategy of supporting military, government, and security customers with scalable unmanned systems. As defense organizations continue modernizing their capabilities, Draganfly’s expanded platform portfolio positions the company to participate in a growing range of opportunities across the global autonomous systems market.

Draganfly Sets New Benchmark in U.S. Defense Tech With Border-Security Validation and Multi-Agency Engagement

Posted by Brittany McNabb at 2:21 PM on Wednesday, November 19th, 2025

Introduction

Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO; CSE: DPRO) is a North American developer of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and modular drone solutions designed for defense, public safety, telecommunications support, and enterprise use. With a focus on sovereign manufacturing, mission-ready platforms, and strategic partner integration, the company is entering a period of accelerated growth. Over the past several months, Draganfly has announced a series of developments—including defense partnerships, expanded U.S. production, multi-agency border-security demonstrations, and repeat orders from major enterprise customers—that collectively signal a strengthening position within the U.S. defense and homeland-security ecosystem.

Border-Security Demonstrations Underscore Increasing Homeland-Security Demand

A major milestone in November 2025 showcased Draganfly’s capabilities in one of the most challenging operational environments in North America. During the Cochise County Drone Summit, held November 16–17, the company executed live mission demonstrations of its Outrider™ Border Drone alongside the Cochise County Sheriff’s Office.

The Outrider™, a North American–built, NDAA-compliant platform, successfully performed surveillance, emergency-response support, apprehension assistance, and secure communications operations along rugged sections of the U.S.–Mexico border.

Beyond defense, Draganfly’s Commander 3XL platform continues to gain traction in critical-infrastructure markets. In November 2025, the company secured a second major purchase order from a Fortune 50 telecommunications company.

The order includes multiple Commander 3XL units integrated with the USaS LEAP® tether system—an architecture designed for continuous power, high-bandwidth data connectivity, and persistent aerial communications. These systems support emergency response, network restoration, and post-disaster telecommunications operations.

The repeat order signals both customer confidence and growing enterprise adoption of NDAA-compliant Heavy Lift platforms.

Channel Expansion and Autonomous Innovation

Draganfly’s market reach broadened in October 2025 through a value-added reseller (VAR) partnership with Drone Nerds—one of the largest drone integrators in the United States. The agreement includes sales, integration, training, and technical support for Draganfly’s full NDAA-compliant product family.

Draganfly also announced a collaboration with Palladyne AI to integrate the Palladyne™ Pilot autonomy suite, enabling:

  • Multi-agent swarm operations
  • Real-time sensor fusion
  • AI-enabled tracking and classification
  • Collaborative autonomous mission execution

These capabilities support evolving defense requirements for multi-domain autonomous systems.

Mission-Ready Technology Portfolio Supporting Multi-Domain Use Cases

Across its portfolio—Commander 3XL, Flex FPV, Apex, Heavy Lift systems, and the Outrider Border Drone—Draganfly emphasizes modularity, high durability, and mission adaptability.

Recent initiatives demonstrate the breadth of applications:

  • Border Security: Outrider™ platform validated in live federal, state, and military demonstrations
  • Defense: Flex FPV deployments and Commander 3XL adoption across U.S. defense programs
  • Telecommunications: Commander 3XL + LEAP® tether used for persistent airborne communications
  • Humanitarian & Public Safety: Collaboration with Autonome Labs on aerial mine and route-clearance systems through the M.A.G.I.C. framework

These developments highlight the company’s ability to meet disparate requirements across defense, homeland security, emergency response, and industrial markets.

Closing Outlook

Draganfly’s recent developments—multi-agency border-security validation, expanded defense partnerships, increased U.S. production capacity, enterprise repeat orders, and new autonomy integrations—collectively represent one of the company’s strongest periods of strategic advancement.

With deepening alignment to U.S. procurement priorities, proven NDAA-compliant manufacturing, and a mission-ready portfolio serving both national-security and critical-infrastructure needs, Draganfly is positioned for expanded participation across defense, public-safety, and homeland-security markets.

Its continued execution in manufacturing scale-up, platform development, and strategic collaboration underscores a rising role within the North American drone-technology landscape.

Draganfly Expands U.S. Manufacturing and Showcases Tactical Drone Capabilities Amid Strong Q2 Growth

Posted by Brittany McNabb at 3:16 PM on Wednesday, September 10th, 2025

Expansion of manufacturing complements live demonstrations and rising revenue momentum

Introduction

Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO | CSE: DPRO | FSE: 3U8), a pioneer in drone innovation, is making significant strides on multiple fronts. The company recently expanded its U.S. manufacturing capacity while simultaneously validating its cutting-edge Commander 3XL and Flex FPV platforms in high-stakes U.S. military exercises. These developments come as Draganfly reports a 37% year-over-year increase in product sales for Q2 2025, reflecting both growing market demand and operational execution. Together, these milestones position Draganfly as a leader in scalable, mission-ready drone solutions built in North America.

Background and Context

With over 25 years of industry leadership, Draganfly has built a reputation for engineering excellence across public safety, industrial, and defense sectors. Its modular drone portfolio ranges from heavy-lift logistics drones to agile FPV reconnaissance systems, providing adaptable solutions for complex missions.

At the same time, U.S. defense policy is shifting decisively toward domestic production. The Department of Defense has called for accelerated drone manufacturing to strengthen national security and reduce reliance on foreign suppliers. Draganfly’s expansion directly supports this goal by increasing its U.S.-based production capabilities while ensuring compliance with defense procurement standards.

Operational Validation at T-REX 24-2

Between August 19–28, Draganfly participated in the U.S. Department of Defense’s T-REX 24-2 exercise at Camp Atterbury, Indiana. Out of hundreds of applicants, only four companies were invited to demonstrate FPV drone capabilities in this rigorous, live-operational environment.

  • Commander 3XL: Successfully executed multi-drop payload deliveries using its universal tactical system, proving its value as a battlefield force multiplier.
  • Flex FPV: Delivered ultra-low-latency intelligence in GPS-denied and constrained environments, including live “over-the-shoulder” targeting support for allied forces.

Draganfly CEO Cameron Chell stated,

Posted in Draganfly Inc. | Comments Off on Draganfly Expands U.S. Manufacturing and Showcases Tactical Drone Capabilities Amid Strong Q2 Growth

Draganfly Q2 Revenue Jumps 22% to $2.12M as Cash Reserves Surge to $22.6M

Posted by Brittany McNabb at 5:26 PM on Friday, August 15th, 2025

UAV maker posts double-digit revenue growth as it lands defense orders, a Fortune 50 telecom deal, and a Pentagon showcase slot

Introduction

Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO; CSE: DPRO; FSE: 3U8) reported second-quarter revenue growth and a string of operational wins that deepen its footprint in defense, public safety, and emergency infrastructure. Product sales rose 37% year over year in Q2 2025, helping lift total revenue 22% as the company advanced deliveries to U.S. defense programs, secured a Fortune 50 telecommunications customer for disaster recovery, and demonstrated an integrated tactical system at an invite-only Pentagon event. 

Background and Context

Founded more than two decades ago, Draganfly is best known for building modular unmanned aerial platforms used in time-sensitive missions. The company’s heritage includes one of the most widely cited early rescues by a public-service drone, when Canadian authorities used a Draganflyer to help locate an injured driver in 2013—an episode frequently credited as a first for life-saving drone use. That real-world orientation continues to shape the firm’s product roadmap and go-to-market focus. 

Q2 by the Numbers

In the quarter ended June 30, 2025, Draganfly posted revenue of $2.12 million (+22.1% YoY) and product sales of $1.90 million (+37.1% YoY). Gross profit was $505,000, with a gross margin of 23.9% versus 26.6% a year ago, a decrease the company attributed to sales mix. Cash and equivalents stood at $22.57 million at quarter-end, up from $6.25 million on December 31, 2024. The company reported a comprehensive loss of $4.75 million, including non-cash items. 

The stronger cash position reflects a series of financings, including a $25 million registered direct offering that closed in July 2025. 

What’s Driving the Pipeline

Defense traction. In July, a major branch of the U.S. Department of Defense selected Draganfly’s Commander3 XL for advanced operational initiatives, and the company separately announced a strategic military order for the platform—adding validation in intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) and related missions. In June, Draganfly began delivering its Flex FPV systems under an order from a major U.S. prime contractor. 

Pentagon demonstration. On August 5, Draganfly showcased an integrated tactical strike system—developed with MMS Products’ “Mjolnir” modular munition—at the Pentagon’s Low-Cost Uncrewed Combat Attack Systems event, highlighting modular payload integration and ISR-to-strike workflows. 

Disaster recovery and telecom resilience. After extensive testing with Infinity Communications, a Fortune 50 telecom purchased multiple Draganfly Heavy Lift drones to move supplies and restore communications in storm-damaged or inaccessible areas—an example of how UAV logistics are being embedded in business continuity plans. 

Humanitarian demining. In April, SafeLane Global named Draganfly its preferred global provider of landmine-mapping drones and aerial survey services in a multi-year agreement, with the first Ukraine aerial-survey contract underway—expanding the firm’s role in humanitarian operations. 

Why It Matters

Together, these developments put Draganfly at the nexus of three durable demand drivers: defense modernization, critical-infrastructure resilience, and humanitarian/ public-safety missions. Defense orders and Pentagon-level demonstrations can translate into longer-term programs if performance milestones are met. Commercial adoption by a Fortune 50 telecom underscores use cases beyond defense, where drones can shorten recovery time and improve safety after disasters. Humanitarian contracts broaden the addressable market while reinforcing the brand’s mission-driven identity. 

Expert and Company Views

Company leaders have framed recent wins as proof points for a modular, mission-ready approach built around North American, NDAA-compliant systems. In the Pentagon release, Draganfly emphasized that the LUCAS demonstration validated its integration and autonomy work in contested environments; the SafeLane agreement similarly positions the company as a specialist supplier in complex, high-risk settings. 

Challenges and Considerations

Despite top-line and product-sales growth, Draganfly remains loss-making as it invests in personnel, R&D, and market expansion; margins also move with product mix, which can pressure profitability in any given quarter. Execution risk is inherent in defense and public-sector sales cycles, where revenue can be lumpy and contingent on trials, security reviews, and budget timing. The company’s bolstered cash balance provides runway to support production scaling and program deliveries, but sustained growth will depend on converting pilots and initial orders into recurring or multi-year awards. 

Bottom Line

Q2 2025 offered a clear snapshot of Draganfly’s strategy in motion: expand in defense with validated platforms, extend into enterprise resilience with heavy-lift logistics, and apply the same technology stack to humanitarian missions. With fresh capital, a fuller order book, and marquee demonstrations, the company is positioned to compete for larger programs as organizations look to unmanned systems for faster response, better data, and safer operations.

Why Draganfly Could Lead the Drone Revolution in Healthcare, Logistics, and Defense

Posted by Brittany McNabb at 12:51 PM on Thursday, January 2nd, 2025

Introduction
As the global adoption of autonomous drones accelerates across industries, the implications for healthcare, logistics, and defense are profound. Draganfly Inc. (NASDAQ: DPRO), an award-winning drone solutions developer, is strategically positioned to capitalize on these advancements. Recent proof-of-concept test flights for a drone delivery initiative with Mass General Brigham (MGB) underscore Draganfly’s alignment with cutting-edge industry trends, demonstrating the potential of drones to transform healthcare logistics.

Industry Outlook and Draganfly’s Trajectory

The global military drone market, projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 13.8% through 2030, reflects the broader momentum in autonomous drone adoption. While military applications remain a key driver, industries like healthcare are exploring drones for time-sensitive tasks. Innovations in endurance, payload capacity, and data integration are enabling new use cases, such as Draganfly’s exploration of drone-based medical supply delivery.

Draganfly is uniquely positioned within this expanding landscape, leveraging over two decades of expertise to design drones tailored for various applications, from surveillance to medical logistics. The company’s commitment to innovation aligns seamlessly with global trends favoring efficient, autonomous systems.

Voices of Authority

The adoption of drones in military and civilian applications reflects a broader shift toward networked, autonomous solutions. Grand View Research highlights the importance of “sophisticated algorithms for navigation, target recognition, and obstacle avoidance,” a focus area that Draganfly excels in.

Dr. David Levine of Mass General Brigham’s Home Hospital reinforces the healthcare angle: “This is a first step toward delivering high-quality healthcare directly to patients’ homes in a timely and cost-effective manner.” Such endorsements underscore the relevance of Draganfly’s technologies in critical real-world scenarios.

Draganfly’s Highlights

Draganfly’s achievements include:

  • Healthcare Integration: Successful test flights with MGB demonstrate how drones can bridge logistical gaps in medical supply chains.
  • Defense and Surveillance Expertise: Tactical drones designed for real-time intelligence and surveillance align with global military needs.
  • Custom Solutions: Modular drone designs cater to diverse industries, positioning Draganfly as a go-to innovator.

These milestones solidify the company’s reputation as a leader in both civilian and defense markets.

Real-world Relevance

Imagine a critical medical test requiring immediate analysis. Traditional logistics might delay its arrival, but a drone equipped with real-time tracking and optimized routing ensures timely delivery. For investors, this operational shift represents not just technological progress but also the ability to address systemic inefficiencies, creating tangible value.

Looking Ahead with Draganfly

With advancements in battery life, payload technology, and autonomous navigation, Draganfly aims to expand its impact across industries. The company’s focus on healthcare logistics, combined with its expertise in defense applications, positions it to thrive as drones become indispensable tools in the global economy.

Conclusion
Draganfly’s trajectory exemplifies how innovation and strategic foresight can converge to meet emerging global demands. By addressing critical challenges in healthcare logistics and defense, the company is poised to play a transformative role in shaping the future of autonomous drone technology.
