NATO DIANA was established in 2022 to accelerate the innovation and adoption of novel technology within the Alliance to promote a peaceful future. This presentation will introduce how NATO DIANA endeavours to accomplish that goal. The Challenge Programme will be highlighted, including a discussion of the 2025 challenge topics and the cohort selection process. The 2026 challenge programme timeline will then be outlined, followed by a quick discussion of best practices when submitting proposals. Finally a short summary of other DIANA programmes will be presented.
