Brightcom Group Ltd (NSE: BCG) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Project DYNAMO Inc., a U.S.-based veteran-run humanitarian organization, to co-develop disaster-readiness technologies. The partnership aims to combine Brightcom’s advanced defence AI systems with Project DYNAMO’s proven operational capabilities in evacuations and humanitarian relief.
Partnership Scope
The agreement will focus on integrating Brightcom’s C3ISR (Command, Control, Communications, Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance) systems with Project DYNAMO’s ground-level experience in disaster zones. The combined platform is expected to deliver:
- Real-time situational awareness with AI-driven dashboards and monitoring.
- Evacuation route planning using data-based modelling and predictive algorithms.
- Multi-agency coordination, bridging military, civilian, and NGO responders.
- Post-disaster analysis, helping governments and relief agencies evaluate recovery operations.
Brightcom will also work with government agencies and disaster-management authorities to pilot test the platform in high-risk regions, including South Asia and other disaster-prone geographies.
About Project DYNAMO
Founded in 2021, Project DYNAMO is a non-profit staffed by U.S. military veterans. The group is best known for conducting high-stakes rescue and evacuation operations, including evacuations during conflicts and natural disasters. Recently, its volunteers shifted focus to U.S. flood relief operations, showing its agility in both war zones and domestic emergencies.
With Brightcom’s AI-driven solutions, Project DYNAMO expects to scale its reach globally, enabling faster, tech-enabled disaster relief under chaotic conditions.
Company Profile — Brightcom Group
Brightcom Group Ltd is primarily known as a digital marketing and ad-tech player, but over the last two years has expanded aggressively into defence and advanced technology verticals.
- Promoters: The company is led by Chairman & CEO Suresh Reddy, who has spearheaded its diversification strategy.
- Revenue Base: Brightcom’s consolidated revenue for FY25 stood at around ₹5,000 crore, with a majority still from digital advertising operations. Its defence and AI verticals are at an early stage, but management has positioned them as growth drivers for the next decade.
- Previous Alliances: In 2024, Brightcom entered a pact with U.S.-based CQT Weapon Systems for developing tactical hardware and AI-enabled defence tools. The new MoU with Project DYNAMO signals a parallel pivot into humanitarian tech applications.
Strategic Rationale
The MoU highlights a growing global trend: blurring of lines between defence technologies and humanitarian missions. Militaries and private defence firms worldwide are increasingly deploying logistics, command systems, and AI in disaster relief.
For Brightcom, this partnership expands its addressable market. Analysts estimate that the global incident and emergency management market could grow at 8–10% CAGR, with Asia-Pacific leading demand due to climate change-driven risks.
Risks & Watchpoints
While the announcement is strategic, investors will look for clarity on:
- Execution: Whether pilot projects with governments lead to commercial contracts.
- Interoperability: Integrating military-grade AI with civilian disaster-response systems will require careful adaptation.
- Governance: Deployment in sensitive zones raises issues around oversight and accountability.
- Revenue Visibility: Brightcom’s defence-tech ventures are still early-stage; monetisation remains a medium-term story.

Outlook
The MoU with Project DYNAMO marks another step in Brightcom’s pivot beyond digital advertising, positioning it as an emerging defence-tech and humanitarian-tech player. Successful pilots could allow Brightcom to build credibility with governments and international agencies, creating a new revenue stream in a high-visibility sector.
For now, the partnership adds to Brightcom’s narrative of diversification, but investors will be watching for hard contracts, deployment case studies, and revenue disclosures before assigning meaningful value.
