From the CEO

A new growth company in the defence and security sector has been established

In the current changing security environment, national, Nordic, and European supply security, as well as the protection of critical infrastructure, play a key role. Summa Defence was founded to meet the need of Finnish defence and security companies, and the entire sector, to evolve in order to strengthen our overall security. We combine the best technological expertise in the field, entrepreneurial spirit, and innovation capability to support industrial-scale production. This makes Summa Defence a significant new player aiming for international growth and cooperation with trusted partners.

Summa defence offers financial backing and new growth opportunities

Our operations are based on the recognized need in Finland and the EU to strengthen the defence and security industry and meet the growing demands of industrial production and situational awareness. Summa Defence provides small and medium-sized Finnish defence companies with a home base where they can grow, develop, and internationalize. Our goal is to achieve a revenue of 500 million euros by the end of 2027 and increase shareholder value by building a significant defence and security group. A stock exchange listing would support this goal.

Finland has an immense amount of expertise and innovation capability in the defence and security industry. With Summa Defence, we offer Finnish companies financial backing and new growth opportunities. Together, we can achieve more than as individual players, while also strengthening our national security and creating significant innovations for international markets.
