About Sensofusion

Sensofusion develops drone detection and counter-drone systems that combine radio sensors, radar and a software platform to classify threats and coordinate their neutralisation. It serves defence organisations, authorities and infrastructure operators and builds hardware, software and support in-house. Its Aerospace unit develops surveillance aircraft and satellites, with future programmes kept separate from operational products. The company was registered on 27 April 2016 in Vantaa, where it has its registered office and HQ, and is controlled by founder Tuomas Rasila through Haave Oy (81.60% at 30 September 2026, before the IPO). It issued shares for โ‚ฌ2.033M in 2024 (Lifeline Ventures) and โ‚ฌ44.966M in the Series B of December 2025 (Varma and Lifeline). The public offering of 8 October 2026 provided for new shares of about โ‚ฌ259M gross without the greenshoe; trading in prelist on Nasdaq Helsinki began on 9 October 2026, with the move to the Main Market expected on 13 October 2026. It is no longer a private unicorn: the โ‚ฌ1.3 billion pre-money ceiling concerns the cornerstone commitments, not a private round.
