Tempest Droneworx™, a Houston-based real-time intelligence technology company, has been selected to present at Venture Atlanta 2026, the Southeast’s premier technology innovation event and one of the nation’s leading venture capital conferences. The event, taking place October 14-15 at the Woodruff Arts Center and Atlanta Symphony Hall, brings together the region’s fastest-growing technology companies with top-tier investors, corporate innovation leaders, and potential strategic partners from across the country. Tempest Droneworx was chosen after a highly competitive application process, underscoring its potential as a disruptive force in the intelligence and robotics sectors.
At the core of Tempest Droneworx’s offering is its Harbinger™ platform, which aggregates, controls, analyzes, and disseminates information from unmanned systems, security cameras, LiDAR, thermal and RGB sensors, RADAR, satellite data, and other sources into a real-time 3D common operating picture. This technology is platform-, sensor-, communications-, AI/ML-, and presentation-agnostic, allowing customers to integrate existing and future systems without being locked into a single hardware or software ecosystem. The company’s technology has been demonstrated through programs with the Federal Aviation Administration and U.S. Air Force, including simultaneous control of heterogeneous unmanned aircraft and the development of airspace deconfliction and real-time 3D common operating picture capabilities.
Tempest Droneworx serves defense, government, public safety, research, agriculture, infrastructure, and commercial markets. The company is also bringing Corvus MRDR™ (Modular Robotics Development & Reporting) to market, an engineering platform that allows researchers and developers to build and test robotics, autonomy, cooperative control, and multi-vehicle technologies using combinations of virtual and physical systems in the same environment. Corvus MRDR™ enables teams to move incrementally from simulation to real hardware without rebuilding the test environment around their code, while capturing telemetry for analysis and playback. This could significantly accelerate development cycles in robotics and autonomous systems.
The implications of Tempest Droneworx’s selection for Venture Atlanta are significant. Venture Atlanta has helped launch more than 1,000 companies, facilitating more than $8.8 billion in capital raised and $22 billion in successful exits. By presenting at this event, Tempest Droneworx gains access to a network of hundreds of investors and influential leaders who can help it raise the capital needed to scale its operations and bring its technologies to a broader market. As an SBA-certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, the company also brings a unique perspective to the defense and government contracting space, where real-time intelligence and interoperability are increasingly critical.
