Hadean and 4C Strategies to showcase collective training system at IT2EC 2024

Following the MoU signing at I/ITSEC 2023, the teams have worked together to combine the super-orchestration of Hadean’s AI-powered spatial computing with the data-driven UI of 4C Strategies’ Exonaut. The integration between 4C Strategies and Hadean enables Exonaut to incorporate synthetics into its interface, powered by Hadean. This enables the synchronisation between real-time actions controlled by Exonaut and their consequences in the realistic and dynamic simulations – and vice versa. With its data exploitation tool in place, the augmented Exonaut capability supports evidence-based decision-making and ensures lessons learned from exercises are applied to future training for continuous and effective capability development.
 
The demonstration at IT2EC 2024 will specifically showcase how a representative crisis in a NATO partner state can unfold while NATO and adversary forces clash. This scenario effectively stretches the local government emergency services' resources and simulates densely populated areas, reflecting sentiments through heightened social media, including traffic congestion, panic, and unrest.

4C Strategies UK Military Sales Director, Paul Steel, said: “Collaborating with Hadean demonstrates our commitment to be at the forefront of the evolution of training technologies. By combining data-driven training readiness with world leading Generative AI and Large Language Model capabilities we will redefine the transformation of training. Working together we demonstrate the power of SME collaboration through technological innovation and commercial agility ensuring we are able to help prepare soldiers for current and future conflicts.”
 
Craig Beddis, Co-Founder & CEO at Hadean, said: “Our collaboration with 4C Strategies turbocharges Exonaut's proven system with Hadean's AI-driven spatial computing, delivering unparalleled value to users. Created rapidly, this solution exemplifies how agile SMEs can unite to produce essential capabilities swiftly and innovatively.”
