Foundry Hampshire develops the shared digital assets and secure infrastructure needed to catalyse the growth of AI, Defence, and Clean Tech in the region.
Investment in physical assets is important, but digital assets provide the true propellant for modern growth. Foundry Hampshire focuses on Sovereign AI, Defence, and Clean Growth, providing the underpinning intelligence, marketplaces, and collaboration tools that allow local innovators to punch above their weight.
Forward-looking intelligence on local innovation. We track papers, grants, and patents to spot potential before capability is publicly disclosed.
Frictionless access to cluster support. We replace fragmented communities with a single, streamlined, GDPR-compliant entry point.
Curated, high-trust global shop windows. We prioritise evidence of cyber best practices and AI provenance to showcase Hampshire's best.
Resilient, sovereign infrastructure. Secure protocols and APIs that allow IP-sensitive collaboration without reliance on foreign hyperscalers.
Entry via simple conversation, not complex forms. We use Gen-AI interfaces to lower barriers for non-technical founders.
An advisory board of underrepresented leaders audits our "curation" criteria to ensure high standards don't become exclusion barriers.
Prioritising low-carbon protocols and energy-efficient infrastructure for AI and data processing.
Our marketplaces highlight sustainability accreditations, creating a commercial imperative for Net Zero supply chains.
Foundry operationalises the "Smart Growth" objective by providing the precise digital assets required to scale the region's high-potential Digital and Defence sectors.
Directly supports the national "Sovereign Capability" mission by building resilient local infrastructure that reduces reliance on foreign tech giants.
