Omegapoint Uppsala is joining UIC as a new partner, bringing top-tier expertise in cybersecure digitalization. With extensive experience in protecting sensitive systems within areas such as Life Science and the defense sector, the company aims to contribute to a safer innovation climate in Uppsala – from startup level to critical infrastructure.
Omegapoint Uppsala is a local player with global experience and deep knowledge in cybersecurity, systems development, and regulatory compliance. As a new UIC partner, they aim to support startups and growth companies with advisory services and technical expertise in how to build secure digital services from the ground up – known as “secure by design.”
” Det handlar om att skydda affärskritiska tillgångar, uppfylla lagkrav och bygga robusta lösningar från start “
– We enter this partnership with the ambition to support companies at all stages with their challenges in cybersecure digitalization. It’s about protecting business-critical assets, complying with legal requirements, and building robust solutions from the start, says Patrik Lannegård, CEO of Omegapoint Uppsala.
Omegapoint supports startups, authorities, and global companies in developing secure software products and services – often in environments where sensitive personal data, patient information, or classified material is handled. With a deep understanding of geopolitics, business-critical processes, and regulations, they often act as a long-term technology partner – from strategy to implementation.
Strengthening Uppsala Through Secure Digitalization
The partnership between Omegapoint and UIC is a valuable addition to Uppsala’s innovation system, particularly within Life Science, defense, and the public sector. Omegapoint already collaborates with several local actors.
– As a UIC partner, companies gain access to cutting-edge expertise in an area that is increasingly business-critical. Cybersecure digitalization is not just a technical requirement – it’s a competitive advantage and a prerequisite for growth, says Patrik Lannegård, CEO of Omegapoint Uppsala.
Omegapoint plans to contribute through lectures, workshops, and advisory services. In August, for example, they will host a workshop focused on geopolitical analysis, the current global situation, and cybersecurity for startups.
Helping Startups Build Secure and Scalable Solutions
Protecting sensitive data, meeting regulatory requirements, and developing scalable digital products is a challenge for many young companies. Omegapoint has long-standing experience in guiding startups through these steps – offering strategic advice, planning, and operational development.
– We have a background as entrepreneurs in Uppsala ourselves and understand what it means to start and build a company. There is a high demand for cybersecurity expertise, especially in Life Science and defense. That’s where we can contribute with both deep technical knowledge and practical guidance – from idea to implemented solution, says Patrik Lannegård.
Through its subsidiary Basalt , Omegapoint also has access to expertise in classified systems and product development for the defense sector. The company offers everything from short specialist assignments to full development teams and often acts as an extended development department for its clients.
A key part of UIC’s success is the collaboration with experienced external partners from the local business community. These partners share their knowledge through UIC’s business development programs and offer services to UIC-affiliated companies at favorable rates – including support in areas such as software development, law, finance, design, intellectual property, and more.
