QUICKBLOCK has raised £940,000 through a combination of equity investment and innovation grants to accelerate its expansion across Europe, strengthen production and support R&D. The Scottish company develops rapidly deployable modular infrastructure for defence, security and humanitarian applications and is seeing growing demand as governments increase investment in military capability and resilience.
Fraser Lusty, Managing Director of Equity Gap, said: “Equity Gap has supported QUICKBLOCK since 2021, developing its technology and product suite in conjunction with UK and overseas militaries. Against the current background of increased global defence spending, QUICKBLOCK is now uniquely positioned to build on this and provide rapidly deployable solutions as flexible, realistic training environments or protective infrastructure to save lives and assets during operations. Equity Gap is proud to continue to support the team’s expansion and scale-up in the growing defence and humanitarian sectors.”
