Vortex Journey – LATYS & Groupe MISA

We’re excited to share that LATYS has partnered with Groupe MISA through the Vortex Journey – IoT Chapter, supporting the industrialization of LATYS FOCUS for mining applications.

This collaboration represents a major milestone in our journey within the mining sector, where LATYS FOCUS has already proven its value in underground trials by delivering:

• More reliable connectivity
• Faster speeds
• Performance tailored to the critical needs of mining operations

Through this program, LATYS has secured $443,718 in non-dilutive funding, bringing the total project value to $887,425. This investment strengthens our mission to transform connectivity in mines and beyond. 🎉

A special thank you goes out to our partners — Groupe MISA and Canadian Royalties Inc. — for their trust and collaboration.

LATYS FOCUS

As digital transformation accelerates across the mining industry, connectivity has become a critical enabler of automation, real-time data, worker safety, and asset performance. Yet, mine sites remain among the most challenging environments for ensuring stable, fast, and reliable communications.

LATYS is addressing this challenge with a next-generation wireless communication platform, powered by smart antenna technology and Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS). Our breakthrough solution is designed to radically improve wireless coverage and performance in mines — enabling safer, more efficient, and more automated operations.
