Dear Investors,

Over 80% of Earth—oceans, ice, dense jungle, underground tunnels—has long been a dead zone for wireless connectivity.

That changes now.

Using proprietary Surface Electromagnetic Wave technology, Saltenna became the first to transmit high-bandwidth RF signals without line of sight—through metal, ice, water, concrete, and dense terrain.

The implications? Enormous. The addressable markets—oil & gas, defense, logistics, telecom, smart cities—span trillions in infrastructure investment.

This is a first-mover advantage with patented IP and government backing.

A DARPA Program Manager described it as “the most exciting breakthrough in the Electromagnetic Spectrum in the last 60 years.“

Now we’re raising $5M in a Series A round to seize the opportunity ahead.
