Collaboration expands Zorronet's AI-powered detection, analysis and response capabilities into agricultural security, theft and critical transportation infrastructure protection
NETANYA, Israel, July 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BiomX Inc. (NYSE American: PHGE) (“BiomX” or the “Company”) today announced that its subsidiary, Zorronet Ltd. (“Zorronet”), has entered into a strategic collaboration with Samura s.r.o., a leading Czech company specializing in the distribution, implementation, and commercialization of innovative technologies across Central and Eastern Europe. The collaboration will support projects across multiple sectors, including agriculture, infrastructure, environmental monitoring, property protection, and other applications where Zorronet's technology can deliver measurable value.
The collaboration demonstrates how Zorronet's AI-powered software can be applied beyond traditional defense and security applications to address complex real-world monitoring challenges. By combining specialized hardware with intelligent software, the solutions are designed to help organizations detect meaningful events earlier, automate decision-making and support faster, more effective responses across large, distributed areas.
The first collaboration will focus on developing AI-powered intelligent monitoring solutions for agricultural and urban pest management. Samura will contribute its expertise in smart pest control systems and market implementation, while Zorronet will provide the AI software that analyzes sensor and camera data, identifies pest activity and autonomously determines the most appropriate response. The joint solution is designed to foster improved pest management while reducing unnecessary chemical use, lowering operating costs, and minimize unintended harm to non-target animals. The system is also expected to provide users with improved visibility into pest activity, helping support more efficient and sustainable pest management practices.
The second collaboration focuses on protecting critical transportation infrastructure through AI-powered monitoring and early warning technologies. Zorronet will deliver the AI software responsible for analyzing incoming information, identifying potential hazards and supporting rapid response. The jointly developed solution is designed to detect animals and unauthorized people before they enter dangerous areas, and reduce wildlife collisions and trespassing incidents while improving the safety and resilience of critical transportation infrastructure.
The technology has already been applied in agricultural settings and has proven to be effective at both detecting wildlife as well as identifying unauthorized vehicles, trespassing and other security events across farms and Israel Railways’ rail lines.
"These collaborations represent an important milestone in Zorronet's European growth strategy and demonstrate how our AI-powered software can create value across multiple industries," said Michael Oster, CEO of BiomX. "Whether protecting transportation infrastructure or helping farmers manage agricultural challenges more intelligently, the underlying need is the same: transforming large amounts of field data into timely, actionable decisions. We believe these collaborations further demonstrate the flexibility of Zorronet's technology while advancing BiomX's Detection-Analysis-Response strategy across new commercial markets."
"One of the strengths of our technology is that the underlying challenge is often the same, even when the application is very different," said Idan Wasserman, CEO of Zorronet. "Whether monitoring a military installation, protecting a railway corridor or managing agricultural pests, organizations must continuously analyze information from multiple sources, distinguish meaningful events from routine activity and respond quickly. We are excited to work with Samura s.r.o. to bring these capabilities to more industries and expand Zorronet's presence in Europe."
"We see significant opportunities to bring advanced AI technologies to customers facing increasingly complex monitoring challenges," said Yaron Keren, CEO of Samura s.r.o. "By combining our specialized hardware with Zorronet's intelligent software, this collaboration should enable us to deliver innovative solutions that improve efficiency, enhance safety and address practical challenges across agriculture and transportation. We look forward to working together to introduce these technologies throughout the Czech and Slovakian markets."
Under the agreement, Samura will lead the business development, sales, marketing, and commercial activities across the agreed territories. Technical implementation, installation, and operational support will be provided by Digital4Pest, Samura's specialized technology division focused on smart monitoring and digital solutions.
