NuRAN Enters Maritime Private Networks with Pilot Opportunity Covering up to 1,000 Ships
Pilot to assess NuRAN product capabilities for monitoring, tracking and managing shipments, with a single opportunity that could lead to equipping up to 1,000 ships over time
| ● | New growth vertical: Pilot positions NuRAN to enter the maritime private network and fleet connectivity market. |
| ● | Scalable opportunity: Single partner opportunity could expand to up to 1,000 ships over time if successfully validated. |
| ● | Proven technology in harsh environments: Builds on NuRAN’s experience deploying robust, low-power connectivity in remote and challenging operating conditions. |
| ● | Multiple use cases: Potential applications include shipment tracking, IoT sensor connectivity, asset monitoring and fleet operations. |
Quebec, QC, Canada – September, 10th, 2026 – NuRAN Wireless Inc. (Nasdaq: NUR; FSE: 1RN) (“NuRAN” or the “Company”), a leading rural telecommunications infrastructure provider in Africa, today announced that it has recently entered into a pilot engagement with a fleet management company. The pilot is designed to assess the capabilities of NuRAN’s solutions to monitor, track and support the management of various shipments in maritime fleet environments.
The pilot represents NuRAN’s first step into a new industry vertical that brings together private wireless infrastructure, fleet management systems and shipment visibility. Through the engagement, the Company expects to evaluate how its network products can support connectivity between vessels, onboard systems, cargo assets, sensors and operational platforms used to monitor fleet activity and shipment status. The Company believes that this single opportunity, if successfully validated and commercially expanded, could lead to the deployment of NuRAN technology on up to 1,000 ships over time.
NuRAN views this opportunity as an opening into a new industry where its technology may be well suited given its proven performance in challenging operating environments. The Company’s products and network designs have been deployed in remote rural areas of Africa, where infrastructure constraints, difficult logistics, power limitations and harsh field conditions require robust, reliable and efficient communications solutions. NuRAN believes these attributes are directly relevant to maritime fleet operations, where dependable connectivity and shipment visibility are critical.
Key Points
| ● | NuRAN has recently partnered with a fleet management company to conduct a pilot in the maritime fleet private network industry. |
| ● | The pilot will assess NuRAN’s product capabilities to monitor, track and support the management of various shipments. |
| ● | If successfully validated and commercially expanded, this single opportunity could lead to equipping up to 1,000 ships with NuRAN technology over time. |

| PRESS RELEASE |
| ● | NuRAN believes its technology is well suited to maritime fleet applications given its proven use in harsh, remote rural environments across Africa. |
| ● | Potential applications include shipment tracking, IoT sensor connectivity, asset monitoring, operational data transfer, safety systems and edge-enabled services. |
| ● | The pilot is expected to inform NuRAN’s assessment of future commercial opportunities in maritime fleet private networks. |
Pilot to Validate Maritime Fleet Connectivity and Shipment Tracking Applications
The maritime and logistics industries are increasingly focused on real-time visibility, improved shipment monitoring, asset tracking and operational resilience. Fleet operators and shipment managers are seeking network solutions that can help connect cargo, vessels, onboard equipment and operating platforms, particularly where connectivity can be fragmented or dependent on multiple technologies.
Through the pilot, NuRAN and its fleet management partner intend to assess how NuRAN’s product line can support private network architectures for shipment tracking and fleet operations. The evaluation is expected to focus on connectivity performance, deployment requirements, integration with fleet management workflows, data collection from sensors and assets, and the ability to support reliable monitoring across maritime logistics environments. Based on the partner’s potential deployment footprint, the Company believes the opportunity could scale to as many as 1,000 ships if the pilot achieves its technical and commercial objectives.
Market Opportunity
The opportunity sits at the intersection of several growing markets, including maritime digitization, marine IoT, connected ships, ship tracking and enterprise private wireless networks. Recent industry research estimates the global marine IoT market at approximately US$7.59 billion1 in 2025, growing to US$15.79 billion1 by 2030, while the connected ship market is estimated at approximately US$8.1 billion1 in 2025, growing to US$14.2 billion1 by 2033. Separately, the global ship tracking market was estimated at US$5.87 billion1 in 2025 and projected to reach US$15.01 billion1 by 2034, and the private 5G network market is projected to expand from US$3.9 billion1 in 2025 to US$150.7 billion1 by 2033. NuRAN believes these trends support increasing demand for secure, resilient and data-enabled connectivity solutions for fleets, vessels, cargo assets and logistics environments.
Management Comment
“This pilot marks an important step in NuRAN’s evaluation of maritime fleet private networks as a new industry vertical,” said Francis Létourneau, Director and Chief Executive Officer of NuRAN Wireless. “Over the years, NuRAN has developed a product line, accumulated expertise and gained operating experience in some of the most challenging telecommunications environments, including remote rural Africa. We believe these capabilities can help open new industry opportunities where robust, reliable and efficient connectivity solutions are required. Importantly, this initiative does not represent a deviation from NuRAN’s current business model, but rather an additional opportunity that builds on our diversified infrastructure platform and extends the application of our proven technology into adjacent markets. This maritime fleet opportunity could ultimately involve up to 1,000 ships and, if successfully validated, may represent a meaningful new growth avenue for the Company.”
