Greensea IQ, a leading provider of autonomous robotic systems for maritime and defense operations, has signed an exclusive representation agreement with Neotek, a well-established marine technology company based in Lorient, France.
Under the agreement, Neotek will represent Greensea IQ’s Bayonet family of Autonomous Underwater Ground Vehicles (AUGVs) and its Integrated Navigation System (IQNS) in France and Belgium.
The partnership expands Greensea IQ’s reach in key European defense markets, leveraging Neotek’s experience in systems integration and regional support for naval and littoral operations.
Designed to operate in the surf zone and other nearshore environments, the Bayonet line of AUGVs delivers adaptable and robust capabilities for mine countermeasures (MCM), unexploded ordnance (UXO) detection, hydrographic and beach surveys, and payload delivery. The vehicles are purpose-built for mobility and reliability in high-energy coastal zones, supporting complex missions with minimal operator burden. The IQNS (Integrated Navigation System) provides the precision navigation, communication, and situational awareness required for effective subsea and littoral missions.
“Neotek brings deep technical expertise and strong customer relationships in the maritime and defense sectors across France and Belgium,” explains Rob Howard, Chief Growth Officer of Greensea IQ. “We’re excited to partner with a company that understands the operational challenges of the surf zone and the value of precise navigation and autonomy. Together, we’ll support customers seeking new capabilities for littoral and seabed defense operations.”
Antoine HANOY, Defense Sales Manager at Neotek added, “We are proud to become the exclusive representative for Greensea IQ in France and Belgium. The Bayonet and IQNS systems fit perfectly within our portfolio and address growing demand in the region for advanced autonomous technologies. We look forward to supporting Greensea IQ’s growth and bringing these powerful capabilities to our customers.”
The agreement marks a strategic step in Greensea IQ’s global growth strategy, strengthening its position in the European defense market with a trusted regional partner.
