What Invisio does

Swedish maker of communication headsets and hearing-protection systems for military forces and first responders.

Sells to armed forces through framework contracts, where each soldier's headset is bought once and then needs accessories, upgrades and replacements, so orders arrive in large, uneven batches. The US is its biggest market, ahead of European armies.

In one line: A defense communications-equipment niche maker with no direct large US peer.
