West Hollywood, CA – TEL AVIV, Israel — September 3, 2025 — VisionWave Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: VWAV) (“VisionWave” or the “Company”) today announced the formation of a Strategic Joint Venture with AIPHEX LTD, an Israel-based defense technology company, together with GBT Tokenize Corp. and GBT Technologies, Inc. The new entity, incorporated in Nevada as a limited liability company (the “JV”), is designed to accelerate the development, commercialization, and deployment of advanced defense and space technologies, with a mandate to pursue key U.S. and international defense contracts.
The Nevada-based joint venture, valued internally at approximately $5 billion, unites VisionWave’s Evolved Intelligence
and autonomous aerial platforms with Israeli partner AIPHEX’s combat-validated multi-physics AI and autonomous missiles technologies, alongside contributions from GBT Tokenize and GBT Technologies, to commercialize highly classified defense and space-grade projects.
Agreement Highlights
- Ownership Structure: VisionWave and AIPHEX will each hold 46.76% of the JV, while Tokenize and GBT will hold 6.08% and 0.40%, respectively.
- Internal Value Framework: Equity allocations are based on an internal $5.0 billion valuation framework, used solely for equity allocation purposes.
- Contributions:
- Tokenize: RESTRICTED 897,102 shares of VisionWave common stock and an intellectual property portfolio comprising 12 granted U.S. and international patents in semiconductors, photonics, and AI, with a draft independent valuation of approximately $300 million.
- GBT: RESTRICTED 2,020,500 shares of VisionWave common stock.
- VisionWave: Its proprietary Evolved Intelligence (EI) portfolio, including, RF-to-image sensing, multi-modal fusion, and multi-domain autonomy capabilities.
- AIPHEX: Israeli-developed Neuromorphic 4D Radar and Multi-Physics AI, together with a confidential set of defense projects.
- Term: Seven years, renewable, with automatic termination if no revenue is generated from designated projects within the first 12 months.
Strategic Mission & Project Pipeline
The JV’s mission is to create a sovereign, high-impact platform capable of delivering large-scale defense and space-grade programs with speed and precision. By combining VisionWave’s Evolved Intelligence — a scale enabler for multi-domain operations across air, land, sea, and orbital systems — with AIPHEX’s combat-validated Multi-Physics AI technologies, and reinforcing the platform with Tokenize’s and GBT’s IP and equity contributions, the JV is positioned to compete for transformational opportunities.
As disclosed in the 8-K, the parties have also executed a confidential letter agreement identifying 11 specific “Designated Projects” that are already in advanced stages of negotiation, along with 13 additional “Background Projects” where discussions with third parties are underway. While details remain confidential due to their sensitive nature, these projects represent the scale and strategic importance that the JV is structured to address.
