OAKVILLE, ON, 2026: OBJEXIS AI engineers are participating in the Canadian Army's MINERVA working group, the initiative created to accelerate the adoption of small uncrewed aerial systems across the Army at the speed the modern battlefield demands.
In From the Start
OBJEXIS has been engaged with MINERVA from its earliest industry events. The company's CEO attended the initiative's initial industry launch, hosted by Invest Ottawa, and the orientation activities that followed, before OBJEXIS engineers took seats at the working group table.
Engineering Where Doctrine Is Written
MINERVA brings the Army and Canadian industry to the same table to shape how small UAS are selected, fielded, and fought. OBJEXIS engineers bring something rare to that table: design experience shaped directly by front-line service, where the systems they build are proven against real threats rather than requirements documents.
Built for Exactly This
The MINERVA mandate, low-cost, rapidly fielded, soldier-operated uncrewed systems at scale, is the OBJEXIS thesis in Army form. Modular platforms with operator-selected attritability, field assembly and repair, and AI targeting that runs at the tactical edge are what the company builds every day. Contributing that experience to the Army's process is part of what a sovereign Canadian defence company is for.
