Our mission is to build combat capability

Kampkraft has been established to translate operational requirements, technological expertise and industrial capacity into solutions that strengthen Denmark.

We operate at the intersection of the Armed Forces, industry and the technology sector, and help to ensure that development moves in a common direction.

We create a link between needs and capacity

Denmark finds itself in a security environment where technology and operational requirements are evolving rapidly.
This requires a clear link between those who identify the need, those who develop the technology, and those who are responsible for putting it into operation.

Kampkraft contributes to this context by:

  • Gaining an overview of needs and opportunities

  • Linking specialist knowledge across disciplines

  • Support the development process during the stages where many people would otherwise get stuck

  • Strengthening Danish industry by developing Danish solutions to meet Danish needs

Our role is to support the stakeholders in the ecosystem, not to replace them.

From insight to capability

We work with technologies that require both technical expertise and a realistic assessment.

This means that we:

  • Clarifies requirements and possible applications

  • Collaborates with operational and technical teams

  • Evaluates functionality in realistic settings

The aim is to ensure that promising technologies can be further developed, brought to maturity and put into use.

Needs-driven, experience-based development

We develop and evaluate technologies based on specific operational requirements.

At Kampkraft, the team comprises people with experience from operational environments and from the development and commercialisation of technology, including experience in introducing solutions to organisations such as the Armed Forces and adapting them for use by commercial enterprises.

This results in a combination of:

  • Insight into the front line

  • Understanding of the industry’s processes

  • An understanding of what is required for technology to work in practice

En slagkraftig reserve

A joint effort for Denmark

Denmark is at its strongest when knowledge, technology and operational requirements are developed in an integrated manner.

That is why we are working to ensure that:

  • Danish ideas and technologies have the best chance of being turned into capabilities

  • Development, production and scaling can take place in Denmark

  • Stakeholders in the ecosystem are working more closely together to tackle specific challenges

Kampkraft complements the work already being carried out within the Armed Forces, industry and
research. Our role is to drive things forward and support good solutions every step of the way.
