This mission is personal to me. Before creating Shark Robotics, I served as a French Army soldier in a special reconnaissance unit. I was deployed to Afghanistan, Africa, and other conflict zones. Each mission was intense, violent, and exhausting, but they all taught me the same lesson: on the ground, technology can save your life.

For a long time, this was not true for firefighters and rescuers. They faced life-threatening environments with limited tools. That is why I founded Shark Robotics: to bring technologies to those who run toward danger.

Our robots first gained global attention in 2019 when a Colossus helped extinguish the Notre-Dame Cathedral fire in Paris. Now they serve in Ukraine. And its impact is measurable: SESU reported on Nov. 25 during the delivery ceremony in Kyiv that operational casualties have been divided by three since the robot entered service.

Firefighting robots!
