In April 2020, EasiBridge received its first coverage in a major European defence trade publication — European Security & Defence (ESD), one of the most widely read defence and security magazines across NATO member nations. The system was referenced in the context of the British Army’s Army Warfighting Experiment, placing EasiBridge in front of a pan-European procurement and defence policy audience for the first time.
European Security & Defence is read by senior military officers, defence ministers, procurement officials and industry leaders across Germany, France, the UK, and the wider NATO community. An appearance in its pages represents a significant step beyond the UK domestic defence media — signalling that EasiBridge’s reputation was beginning to travel internationally.
The April 2020 issue — running to 100 pages — covered the evolving character of modern warfare, emerging technologies, and the lessons of recent Army Warfighting Experiments. EasiBridge’s inclusion confirmed its standing as a system of note not just within the British Army, but within the broader European defence technology conversation.
For a Devon micro-SME that had begun life in a farm workshop just five years earlier, appearing in the pages of European Security & Defence alongside major defence contractors and NATO programme updates was a measure of how far EasiBridge had travelled.
