A booth, a CEO presentation, and a return to the program that first validated FIXAIT.
OTTAWA, ON, May 29, 2026: OBJEXIS AI exhibited at the Department of National Defence's IDEaS Marketplace 2026 in Ottawa, where the company's booth put the OBJEXIS ecosystem directly in front of CAF end users, defence scientists, and industry partners, and the OBJEXIS Chief Executive Officer took the stage to present to the assembled defence community.
The IDEaS Marketplace connects Canada's defence innovators directly with the defence and security community: CAF end users, DND program staff, primes, and industry partners. For OBJEXIS, the relationship runs deep. It was through IDEaS that FIXAIT earned its second-place finish at the Counter-UAS Sandbox and the $375,000 "Diamond in the Rough" prize that came with it.
The CEO's presentation brought the OBJEXIS story to the room in person: a full-stack, sovereign Canadian unmanned-systems ecosystem, validated by DND and proven in front-line service, built by people who understand the mission from the inside. Days earlier, that front-line service record had been confirmed in active operations. The Marketplace was its first stop home.
OBJEXIS returned to the Marketplace as a different company than the one DND first evaluated: patents filed across the full stack, systems in active front-line service, and an ecosystem that now spans AI targeting, interceptors, modular UAS, avionics, and operator software. The Marketplace is where that progress connects back to the Canadian defence community it was built to serve.
Canada is investing in sovereign defence capability, and OBJEXIS is proof of what that investment produces: a Canadian company, validated by DND, proven on the front line, and building the full stack at home.
