Nuburu, Inc. (NYSE American: BURU) announced on 2025‑10‑08 that its subsidiary, Nuburu Defense LLC, has secured a binding agreement to acquire 100% of Orbit S.r.l., an Italian software company specializing in operational resilience, business continuity, and crisis management for mission‑critical organizations. The transaction is valued at $12.5 million and marks a significant expansion of Nuburu’s Defense & Security Hub beyond its existing laser and electronic warfare capabilities.
The deal structure includes a $2.4 million net cash advance to Orbit’s owner, to be paid in tranches, and an offset of a $1.35 million receivable that Nuburu holds. The remaining balance will be settled through equity securities issued by Nuburu by the end of 2026, contingent upon shareholder approval. Orbit is wholly owned by Alessandro Zamboni, who also serves as Nuburu’s Executive Chairman and Co‑CEO, ensuring alignment of strategic objectives.
Strategically, Orbit’s SaaS platform provides a continuous plan‑sense‑decide‑act‑learn cycle that complements Nuburu’s laser and electronic warfare technologies. By integrating Orbit’s operational resilience solutions, Nuburu aims to deliver an end‑to‑end suite of defense and infrastructure resilience products, positioning the company to capture demand from NATO, the U.S. Department of Defense, and allied agencies.
The addressable market for operational resilience, business continuity, and crisis management technologies across U.S., EU, and NATO defense organizations is estimated at $2.9–$3.6 billion in 2025, expanding more than 10% annually. This acquisition not only diversifies Nuburu’s revenue streams but also strengthens its competitive moat in high‑value defense markets, making it a material event for investors.
