Star Navigation Systems Group (SNAVF) submitted letters of intent to two Saudi ministries for a proposed regional headquarters and manufacturing facility.
The letters, dated September 25, 2026, went to the Ministry of Investment and Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources with Star's Saudi regional partners. The proposed Riyadh site would support assembly, engineering and customer support, alongside research, training and workforce development. Star plans regional coordination across the Gulf Cooperation Council and wider Middle East and North Africa, with potential expansion into Africa.
The submissions seek guidance on investment requirements, regulatory pathways and approvals. Technical presentations are the anticipated next step only if the ministries determine the plan warrants further consideration.
Star Navigation Systems Group (SNAVF) signed an agreement to provide exclusive monitoring, tracking and related data services for Valum Energy's covered Hydrotor deployments.

Star's first monitoring and diagnostics prototype was built and successfully tested in Europe in February 2026. Valum is preparing its first Canadian commercial pilot for evaluation and validation by telecommunications and data centre companies. Star will support performance evaluation, operations and protection of confidential technology information. Broader deployment remains dependent on validation, with Valum's expansion planning coordinated around customer requirements, manufacturing capacity and applicable approvals.
