ParaZero Secures Romanian Reseller Deal Amid NATO Counter-Drone Demand
Event summary
- ParaZero signed a reseller agreement with Romanian defense integrator New Akord Security on April 23, 2026.
- New Akord purchased an initial demo kit including a Personal Net Launcher and training package.
- Live demonstration planned for Romanian officials during the BSDA exhibition in Bucharest (May 13-15, 2026).
- DefendAir system demonstrated 100% interception success in previous field trials.
The big picture
This deal extends ParaZero's footprint in NATO member states near the Russia-Ukraine conflict zone, where drone warfare has become increasingly prominent. The agreement follows recent momentum including a Western European distribution pact and successful demonstrations for senior NATO officers. Europe's growing investment in counter-drone technology represents a $2.4B market opportunity through 2030, according to Euroconsult.
