Vection Technologies Ltd (ASX:VR1) continues to build its strong relationship with the defence sector, most recently being awarded a $4 million contract extension from a client with whom it gained previous contracts throughout 2024.

This extension focuses on AI software that uses Dell Technologies to power high-end infrastructure design and dedicated AI appliances for real-time processing – with this underscoring both the company’s partnership with Dell and its achievements with AI technology.

Crucially, Vection argues the product central to this new contract has a proven record of boosting national security through the involvement of AI in increased data enrichment, retention, and correlation.

Managing director Gianmarco Biagi said this development highlighted Vection’s reputation within the defence sector.

“This $4 million extension highlights the confidence our partners have in Vection’s capacity to deliver advanced, AI-driven solutions for national security requirements,” he said.

“As we build upon the original scope with AI and additional XR elements, our team remains dedicated to providing robust, scalable, and compliant technologies that address the evolving challenges of the defence sector.”

At 12:42 AEDT Vection shares were trading at 3.4 cents – a rise of 6.25% since the market opened.
