About this report
Hexagon AB is a Swedish industrial technology champion quietly underpinning Europe’s defense and dual-use capabilities. Headquartered in Stockholm, this publicly traded innovator has evolved from precision measurement origins into a global provider of sensors, software, and autonomous solutions.
Within European security circles, Hexagon’s name is not as loud as a fighter jet manufacturer’s, yet its technology resonates across battlefields and industries alike. From digital geospatial intelligence that maps conflict zones in real time to advanced manufacturing systems shaping next-generation aircraft, Hexagon delivers the behind-the-scenes tools that strengthen Europe’s strategic autonomy.
