By orchestrating space and ground resources in real time, NeuraspaceDEF powers Detect–Alert–React! workflows, behaviour recognition & prediction, and C2/ISR-focused resource orchestration, supporting trusted, secure autonomy for both defence missions and commercial operators. For the civilian sector, NeuraspaceDEF accelerates STM for commercial constellations, enabling sub-minute analysis and rapid manoeuvre planning, while coordinated SatAIS intents improve safety, reduce operator workload and support more sustainable space operations. NeuraspaceDEF has been selected under the “Resilient Space Operations” Challenge Area. Over the next six months, we’ll be working closely with the DIANA team and its network of experts to refine our solution and shape it to operational needs. Partnering with end-users will allow us to demonstrate the operational impact of NeuraspaceDEF and jointly shape a strong pathway towards adoption by NATO and Allied nations. 👉Discover the full list of innovators and their solutions: [https://lnkd.in/dNeYAANK](https://lnkd.in/dNeYAANK) 👉 Find out more about NeuraspaceDEF: [https://lnkd.in/dCMbe\_4f](https://lnkd.in/dCMbe_4f)   [Neuraspace](https://blog.neuraspace.com/tag/neuraspace) ## Related posts [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/ml%20plots.jpg?height=200&name=ml%20plots.jpg)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/press-release-machine-learning-prediction-plots) ## [Neuraspace introduces “Machine Learning Prediction Plots” for earlier collision avoidance planning](https://blog.neuraspace.com/press-release-machine-learning-prediction-plots) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/press-release-machine-learning-prediction-plots) [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/shaping-future-space-2025-neuraspace.png?height=200&name=shaping-future-space-2025-neuraspace.png)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/a-message-from-our-ceo) ## [A Message from Our CEO, Chiara Manfletti](https://blog.neuraspace.com/a-message-from-our-ceo) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/a-message-from-our-ceo) [![](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/neuraspace_new_office_uptec_baixa.jpg?height=200&name=neuraspace_new_office_uptec_baixa.jpg)](https://blog.neuraspace.com/new-neuraspace-office-established-at-uptec-baixa-in-porto) ## [New Neuraspace Office Established at UPTEC Baixa in Porto](https://blog.neuraspace.com/new-neuraspace-office-established-at-uptec-baixa-in-porto) [Read more](https://blog.neuraspace.com/new-neuraspace-office-established-at-uptec-baixa-in-porto) --- [![Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light.png?width=200&height=41&name=Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light.png "Neuraspace_Horizontal_Light")](https://www.neuraspace.com) © 2026 Neuraspace [linkedin-in icon](https://www.linkedin.com/company/neuraspace/) [Follow us on Facebook](https://instagram.com/neuraspacehqhttps://) [Follow us on Facebook](https://instagram.com/neuraspacehqhttps://) [Follow us on Facebook](https://twitter.com/neuraspacehttps://) Connect info@neuraspace.com +351 239 700 346   [![PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1.png?width=224&height=80&name=PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1.png "PRR_Logotipos-white-hor-1")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) [![LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01.png?width=257&height=110&name=LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01.png "LOGO_REPUBLICA_PORTUGUESA-01")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) [![PT Financiado pela Uniֶo Europeia_WHITE](https://blog.neuraspace.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PT%20Financiado%20pela%20Uni%D6%B6o%20Europeia_WHITE.png?width=306&height=80&name=PT%20Financiado%20pela%20Uni%D6%B6o%20Europeia_WHITE.png "PT Financiado pela Uniֶo Europeia_WHITE")](https://www.neuraspace.com/) ```json { "@context" : "https://schema.org", "@type" : "BlogPosting", "author" : { "@type" : "Person", "name" : "Neuraspace", "url" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/author/neuraspace" }, "dateModified" : "2025-12-11T17:19:51.209Z", "datePublished" : "2025-12-11T17:19:51.000Z", "headline" : "Diana Challenge 2026", "image" : [ "https://blog.neuraspace.com/hubfs/2026%20Innovator%20announcement_RSO.gif" ], "mainEntityOfPage" : { "@id" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/diana-challenge-2026", "@type" : "WebPage" }, "publisher" : { "@type" : "Organization", "logo" : { "@type" : "ImageObject", "url" : "https://blog.neuraspace.com/hubfs/Neuraspace_Dark-2.png" }, "name" : "Neuraspace" } } ```
