NEW YORK, April 2, 2024 – Today, Dataminr, one of the world’s leading AI companies, and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) have announced an expansion of their partnership to provide NATO with Dataminr’s First Alert, the company’s product for the public sector. As the world faces the most potentially dangerous decade since the Cold War and pervasive geopolitical unrest, Dataminr’s AI platform provides global defense organizations with real-time alerts on breaking events to enable faster response and better protection of their troops and critical infrastructure.

“We are thrilled to expand our partnership with NATO and to support their critical global mission,” said Ted Bailey, Founder and CEO of Dataminr. “In an increasingly volatile and unpredictable world, Dataminr’s First Alert product has proven to be extremely effective for defense organizations seeking to protect their forces and keep their troops out of harm’s way.”
