talkaboutfuture.com is where we highlight the innovation, resilience, and growth of start-ups and SMEs in the defence sectors.

You might not hear about them at tech conferences or in flashy app launches, but let’s be honest—many of today’s most impactful technologies were born in military and defence labs. From the internet and GPS to drones and advanced materials, the defence industry has long been a driver of global innovation. Today, when people hear “start-up,” they think mobile games, crypto, or digital tools. But there’s a whole world of start-ups working in defence tech, harsh environments, and critical systems—developing future technologies that are shaping military capabilities today and will likely transform commercial products tomorrow.

We share company stories, cover industry news, and send out insightful newsletters about defence start-ups and innovation. Our tone is simple, our curiosity is real, and our commitment is to the people building what’s next—quietly, boldly, and often without the spotlight they deserve.

Defence innovation doesn’t have to stay behind closed doors—and we’re here to tell the world about it, one story at a time…
