ABOUT
Iberian Falcata is a Portuguese strategic advisory firm headquartered in Lisbon, bringing together senior professionals with extensive experience across security, defence and intelligence. The company operates at the intersection of strategic analysis, operational requirements, capability development and institutional engagement, supporting organisations in navigating an increasingly complex European and transatlantic security environment.
Accredited by the Portuguese National Security Authority, Iberian Falcata operates within the security requirements applicable to its activities, while members of its team hold EU and NATO security clearances. The company and its experts contribute to NATO Industrial Advisory Group studies and European security and defence initiatives, advising companies, consortia and institutional partners on strategic, operational, technological and policy-related matters.
Our work focuses on helping organisations understand and engage effectively with the European and transatlantic security and defence ecosystem, including NATO structures, European Union programmes and multinational cooperation frameworks. We support clients in positioning capabilities, navigating institutional and regulatory environments, identifying strategic partnerships and participating in collaborative defence initiatives.
Drawing on senior military, intelligence, technical and institutional experience, Iberian Falcata provides a multidisciplinary perspective that connects operational realities, strategic requirements, technology and policy. This enables our clients to better align their solutions with defence and security needs, anticipate evolving priorities and engage effectively with institutional and industrial stakeholders.
In a strategic environment shaped by geopolitical competition, emerging technologies, hybrid threats and rapidly evolving operational requirements, organisations must combine resilience, adaptability and strategic foresight. Iberian Falcata supports clients in strengthening their positioning, improving decision-making and developing approaches that respond to both current and future security challenges.
Recognising that every organisation operates within a distinct strategic, institutional and commercial context, we provide tailored and discreet advisory services grounded in analytical rigour, operational understanding and institutional knowledge. Our approach is focused on delivering practical outcomes while supporting sustainable, long-term strategic value.
Our purpose is to help organisations operate effectively within the security and defence environment, translating strategy, innovation and expertise into relevant capabilities, partnerships and institutional engagement, while contributing to stronger and more resilient European and transatlantic security.
