Vigilar Group made a strategic step and officially announces its entry into the Defense market.
This decision, made with great attention to the ethical implications and responsibilities involved, represents a natural evolution of our mission: to contribute concretely to the security of nations and citizens by combining investigative and intelligence expertise with the most advanced technologies available.
An international partnership
A milestone of such importance is made possible thanks to the partnership with MGI Engineering, a UK-based company founded and led by Mike Gascoyne (CEO), a prominent figure in the Formula 1 world and now a benchmark in engineering applied to the defense sector. Through this alliance, Vigilar Group will be able to integrate its strategic intelligence capabilities with cutting-edge technological solutions, giving rise to innovations designed to serve both the military and civilian sectors.
The meeting at DSEI in London
The opportunity to consolidate this collaboration came during DSEI in London, the most important European defence exhibition. In this international setting, our Head of Intelligence, Davide Castro, and Head of Business Development, Mauro Cattana, met with MGI partners Mike Gascoyne and Vincent O’Neill, along with their team, to share visions, objectives, and common development strategies.

It was both a symbolic and a strategic moment: a meeting point between Vigilar Group’s investigative expertise and MGI’s engineering capabilities, two worlds that complement each other with a common aim to redefine the concept of security.
Looking to the future
Vigilar Group is officially launching the development of projects involving the use of next-generation technologies in both military and civilian contexts, including the production of drones in Italy and their commercialization.
MGI Engineering’s unmanned systems, both aerial and maritime, feature innovative characteristics that enable their strategic use in a wide range of operational scenarios, offering advanced solutions for monitoring, logistical support, and security.

Vigilar Group is not merely extending its scope of action: it is making a genuine leap forward. The ambition is clear, to contribute building a future that is safer, faster, and more efficient. Technology and intelligence merged to create solutions that not only meet today’s needs but also anticipate tomorrow’s challenges.
A decisive step, not only for Vigilar Group but for the entire future of security.
