Dear Investors,

Over 80% of Earth—oceans, ice, dense jungles, underground tunnels, most man-made infrastructures —has long been a dead zone for wireless connectivity.

That changes now.

Using proprietary Surface Electromagnetic Wave technology, Saltenna became the first to transmit high-bandwidth RF signals without line of sight— oceans, ice, dense jungles, underground tunnels, and most man-made infrastructures.

The implications? Enormous. The addressable markets—oil & gas, defense, mining, shipping & logistics, telecom, smart cities—span trillions in infrastructure investment.

This is a first-mover advantage with patented IP and government backing.

A DARPA Program Manager described it as "the most exciting breakthrough in the Electromagnetic Spectrum in the last 60 years."

Now we’re raising $5M in a Series A round to seize the opportunity ahead.

WHY SALTENNA NOW

🌎 Vast Untapped Terrain

Saltenna unlocking the 83–84% of the Earth previously unconnectable:

· 71% water

· 3% polar ice

· 9–10% forested and dense terrain

· Subterranean (tunnels, bunkers, caves)

· Most man-made metal infrastructures

Series A Target: $5M

We are raising strategic capital to

📡 $1.0M – Global IP expansion 🔬 $1.5M – Advanced R&D

🧪 $1.0M – Finalize productization & regulatory milestones

🌍 $1.0M – Strategic partnerships & BD

🔄 $0.5M – Operational growth and working capital

Initial $1.5M seed funding was led by Saltenna’s founders, Fairfax Founders Fund (FFF), Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation (VIPC), and Virginia Venture Partners (VVP).

This is a rare opportunity to invest in a breakthrough platform redefining global wireless communications.

If you're an accredited investor, advisor, or strategic partner, we’d love to connect.
