Tempest Droneworx, a Houston-based real-time intelligence technology company, has been selected to present at Venture Atlanta 2026, the Southeast’s premier technology innovation event and one of the nation’s leading venture capital conferences. The event will take place October 14-15 at the Woodruff Arts Center and Atlanta Symphony Hall, bringing together the region’s fastest-growing technology companies with top-tier investors, corporate innovation leaders, and potential strategic partners from across the country.
The selection follows a highly competitive application process, underscoring Tempest Droneworx’s potential as one of the Southeast’s most promising tech companies. For leaders in business and technology, this signals growing investor interest in advanced real-time intelligence systems that integrate diverse data sources into actionable insights.
Tempest Droneworx develops a real-time, cross-platform intelligence system that fuses data from robots, drones, cameras, sensors, and RADAR into a 3D common operating picture. The company’s Harbinger platform aggregates, controls, analyzes, and disseminates information from unmanned systems, security cameras, LiDAR, thermal and RGB sensors, RADAR, satellite data, and other sources. This technology is platform-, sensor-, communications-, AI/ML-, and presentation-agnostic, allowing customers to integrate existing and future systems without being locked into a single hardware or software ecosystem.
The company has demonstrated its technology through programs with the Federal Aviation Administration and U.S. Air Force, including simultaneous control of heterogeneous unmanned aircraft and the development of airspace deconfliction and real-time 3D common operating picture capabilities. Tempest Droneworx is also bringing Corvus MRDR (Modular Robotics Development & Reporting) to market, an engineering platform that allows researchers and developers to build and test robotics, autonomy, cooperative control, and multi-vehicle technologies using combinations of virtual and physical systems in the same environment. Corvus MRDR enables teams to move incrementally from simulation to real hardware without rebuilding the test environment around their code, while capturing telemetry for analysis and playback.
Venture Atlanta has helped launch more than 1,000 companies, facilitating more than $8.8 billion in capital raised and $22 billion in successful exits. It is the Southeast’s largest investor showcase, connecting top entrepreneurs with local and national investors and others in the technology ecosystem who can help them raise the capital they need to grow their businesses. The annual nonprofit event is a collaboration of the Atlanta CEO Council, Metro Atlanta Chamber, and the Technology Association of Georgia (TAG). For more information, visit www.ventureatlanta.org.
Tempest Droneworx serves defense, government, public safety, research, agriculture, infrastructure, and commercial markets. The company is an SBA-certified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business headquartered in Houston, Texas. Its participation in Venture Atlanta 2026 could accelerate the adoption of its real-time intelligence solutions across these sectors, potentially transforming how organizations monitor and respond to dynamic situations. As industries increasingly seek integrated, AI-driven insights, Tempest Droneworx’s platform may set a new standard for cross-domain situational awareness.
