The Centre for Defence Enterprise (CDE) in the UK has received 1,000 equipment proposals in the course of a year for ideas that could help British frontline troops.

Beneficiaries of CDE funding include Bubblephone telecoms research company for its C-Thru technology.
C-Thru technology establishes network connections in a tactical communication network, maintains them irrespective of changes in the network environment and uses a unique connection method in case of a wireless connection lost in mountainous terrains.
The technology prioritises communication traffic so that urgent messages always get through C-Thru first. It is expected to be used in future Bowman communications systems.
