About

Nexus Group AI presents a compelling investment opportunity in the rapidly expanding market of AI-enabled decision-making tools for critical infrastructure resilience. Our flagship solution, the Intelligence Resilience Information System (IRIS), is designed to empower critical decision-makers by delivering tailored, actionable risk mitigation strategies and ensuring compliance with the Critical Entities Resilience (CER) Directive.

The modern threat landscape, encompassing energy shocks, climate change, and cyber risks, necessitates a proactive and unified approach to risk management. Critical infrastructure operators often face challenges due to fragmented solutions, limited predictive capabilities, and complex regulatory compliance, particularly under the EU’s Critical Entities Resilience (CER) Directive. IRIS directly addresses these pain points by providing real-time risk intelligence through the integration of Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), risk perception analysis, and cross-sectoral scenario modeling. Its dynamic visualization tools and tailored risk insights empower users to anticipate, mitigate, and recover from crises efficiently.

IRIS's Competitive Advantage and Market Opportunity:

  • AI-Driven Innovation: IRIS leverages sophisticated AI algorithms to process vast datasets, identifying intricate patterns and correlations often missed by conventional methods, ensuring real-time, tailored, and intuitive insights.

  • CER Directive Alignment: The platform is specifically designed to enhance resilience and ensure compliance with the CER Directive, a key driver for market growth in Europe.

  • Targeted Market Segments: Nexus Group AI targets critical sectors including government, energy, finance, and telecommunications in Austria and across Europe.

  • Significant Market Potential: The projected Total Available Market (TAM) for AI risk intelligence in Europe is €1.48 billion, expected to grow to €2.1 billion by 2030.

  • Proven Leadership: The company is led by Ioan-Andrei Cursaru (CEO), with extensive experience in security and defense from NATO and the EU, and Orion Forowycz (CTO), an internationally experienced technologist with a strong background in software product development and cloud expertise.

Nexus Group AI operates with a flexible corporate structure (FlexCo) and is supported by an advisory board with strategic expertise to guide its grow
