SENSe Project - Market maturation of a Secure Endpoint Solution

Awarded: NOK 74,999

OffPAD aims to establish trusted endpoint infrastructure solutions enabling sensitive information to be exchanged in a time-saving and secure way, on modern online client devices. Our primary target market segments are Large Enterprises and Public Institutions with strong cyber-security requirements. OffPAD A/S has established valuable contacts in these two segments in Norway, Germany and USA. The strong endorsement of our product from potential major customers and distributors further reinforce the validity and need for a product like ours. The project will be carried out by OffPAD A/S as the project coordinator and lead participant. OffPAD A/S is a Norwegian R&D performing SME. The project will be completed in 24 months and the results are expected to lead to final product launch and sales ramp-up within less than one year after project completion. The major barriers for OffPAD going forward are related to: 1) market awareness and acceptance by the end-users; 2) access to clients and securing the best commercialisation partners; 3) production and market scale-up. We are a small R&D-centric team with limited resources. This project will enable: 1) maturing the product/system (hardware and software elements); 2) conducting large operational demonstrations with test-users; 3) acquiring market intelligence and preparing strategic partnering plans with relevant stakeholders across the value chain. The SME Instrument provides a unique opportunity for OffPAD to showcase the potential of its technology in order to raise customer awareness and overcome the remaining challenges associated with the market adoption of our product. The Project is therefore key to accelerate the monetization of the technology and know-how available in-house. In sum, the completion of the project goals is intrinsically linked with OffPAD A/S strategy for successful market launch and commercialisation of our trusted endpoint IT solutions.
