IS-Wireless (Poland) – Secure 5G Networks for Defence and Communications
A Polish deep-tech company is quietly redefining how Europe builds its wireless networks. IS-Wireless, based near Warsaw, has emerged as a key innovator in secure 5G technology, targeting both defence and demanding commercial applications. Founded by wireless engineers and researchers, the company is developing “sovereign” mobile networks – systems built in Europe, free from untrusted foreign components, and hardened for extreme conditions. IS-Wireless’s mission aligns with Europe’s urgent quest for strategic autonomy in critical communications: reducing reliance on non-allied suppliers and ensuring that connectivity never falters under pressure[1][2]. Over the past few years, this little-known firm has been proving its worth through live 5G deployments, patents for novel network architectures, and selection for prestigious NATO and EU innovation programs. It is a prime example of how a European startup can contribute to collective security by marrying cutting-edge tech with strategic purpose, intriguing defence planners and telecom leaders alike.
