The MOU establishes a framework for collaboration on artificial intelligence technologies in support of GlobalEye. The agreement is directly connected to the GlobalEye opportunity in Canada but would also serve the existing and future international GlobalEye operators. Technologies and competencies developed through the partnership are also intended to contribute to Saab's global product offerings and strengthen international competitiveness.

The collaboration will explore areas such as data-driven mission support, maintenance tools and information processing in an on-premises integration into complex secure aerospace environments. Initial pilot projects have been identified to assess potential pathways for cooperation, aligned with the current needs of the program.

"Canada offers outstanding industrial and advanced technology partners," said Micael Johansson, President and CEO of Saab. "Working with Canadian companies like Cohere on emerging technologies strengthens our global supply chain and enhances Saab's international competitiveness."

"Frontier artificial intelligence should be built for scale, trust, reliability and most importantly, real-word impact." said Ivan Zhang, Co-Founder of Cohere. "Through Saab's deep engineering heritage and our advanced enterprise-grade models, we'll explore pushing the boundaries of what AI can truly deliver for aerospace, enabling teams to process complex data faster, increase operational tempo, surface key insights with clarity and support critical decision making when it matters most." 

Through this MOU, Saab and Cohere signal their shared ambition to combine aerospace expertise and leading-edge AI research in support of high-value industrial cooperation in Canada.
