Across Europe, from Ukrainian frontlines to the Portuguese seaboard, defence tech faces similar challenges.

Apart from having to help defeat aggressors in the real world, defence tech doesn't fit the mold of run-of-the-mill startup practice. It is often deep tech AND hardware AND science-heavy AND massively regulated AND suffering long sales cycles. How can founders and investors deal with that?
