## Why it is interesting

Low-cost commercial and weaponized drones are reshaping battlefield and critical infrastructure security. Affordable, deployable C-UAS systems (detect, track, neutralize) are under-supplied. - Conflicts since 2022 have shown drones are cheap to deploy, expensive to defend against. - Airports, stadiums, and critical sites face real drone-incursion incidents. - European ministries want sovereign C-UAS options at scale. EGIDE's Paris seed round is a microcosm of France's push for sovereign counter-UAV systems and dual-use defense tech.
