The \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network and companies from the WB GROUP (WB Electronics, Polska Amunicja, and MindMade) have signed a strategic partnership agreement in the fields of research, development, and technology transfer. The cooperation is aimed at securing Poland\u2019s technological sovereignty in the high-tech sector and increasing the export of Polish defense systems.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On December 18, at the WB GROUP\u2019s Show Room in Warsaw, a strategic cooperation agreement was signed between the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network and three companies within the capital group headquartered in O\u017car\u00f3w Mazowiecki. For several months, the parties have been working together on projects including the GLADIUS and WARMATE systems, as well as other unmanned platforms.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The jointly developed solutions are designed to support the modernization of the Polish Armed Forces and strengthening Poland\u2019s position in the global technological race. The cooperation will focus primarily on defense and security systems, developed with a view to achieving technological sovereignty – a foundation of national resilience.<\/p>\n

The agreement will accelerate R&D efforts and enable the transfer of ready-made technologies into military systems integrated by WB GROUP, which will then be verified during trials and testing. This is a model example of synergy between the Polish defense industry and research and development institutions.<\/p>\n

During the signing ceremony, the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network was represented by President Hubert Cichocki, while WB Electronics \u2013 the leading company in the WB GROUP \u2013 was represented by President Piotr Wojciechowski. Polish Ammunition was represented by President Pawe\u0142 Poncyljusz and Management Board Member Mateusz Buzuk. MindMade was represented by President Pawe\u0142 Poncyljusz and Management Board Member Jan J. Szczyrek.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWB GROUP is one of the most innovative companies in Europe. I am pleased that the largest private defense enterprise in Poland is also a proven and priority partner for the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network. WB GROUP systems have proven their value in Ukraine, where they play a strategic role in supporting defensive capabilities\u201d, said Hubert Cichocki, President of the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network.<\/p>\n

\u201cExtensive cooperation with an R&D organization as renowned as the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network aligns with our shared goals of achieving not just the technological sovereignty, but Polish dominance in high-tech defense and security sectors. Such agreements help define our specializations on both the Polish and European markets\u201d, stated Piotr Wojciechowski, President of WB GROUP.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis partnership is an important step in delivering our Network\u2019s strategy. Ultimately, we aim to become the R&D partner of choice for Polish defense companies\u201d, added Hubert Cichocki, noting that technology deployments enhance operational effectiveness and, as a result, the export potential of domestic products.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

During the signing ceremony, Piotr Wojciechowski emphasized how proud he was of the growing collaboration with the \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn recent months, cooperation between the Network\u2019s institutes and WB GROUP has accelerated significantly. It\u2019s a breakthrough in quality: in just a few months, we\u2019ve jointly developed a technology for a key ammunition component \u2014 a process originally expected to take several years\u201d,
\nadded Cichocki.<\/p>\n

Under the agreement, \u0141ukasiewicz Research Network institutes will be involved in developing new variants of the WARMATE loitering munition family and the GLADIUS strike-reconnaissance system. Further plans include projects in the fields of UAVs, electronics, and advanced materials.<\/p>\n

The Network responds dynamically to the needs of WB GROUP, delivering solutions in autonomy, automation, and specialized electronics \u2014 in particular printed circuit boards, photodiodes, and optoelectronic components.<\/p>\n
