Polish defense industry executive Przemysław Kowalczuk has been appointed President of the Management Board of Prime ASI, a publicly traded investment company seeking to consolidate private defense manufacturers across Central and Eastern Europe.

Kowalczuk assumed the position on October 25, 2026, according to the company's regulatory filing. His appointment comes as Prime ASI advances a strategy focused on defense manufacturing, ammunition production, autonomous systems and industrial consolidation.

The company, listed on Poland's NewConnect market, aims to build a network of businesses combining manufacturing capacity, technology development and international sales capabilities.

Under its 2026–2030 strategy, Prime ASI has outlined the potential integration of approximately eight to ten companies operating in complementary industrial sectors.

## Kowalczuk Brings Experience from Major Polish Defense Companies

Kowalczuk has more than two decades of experience in Poland's technology and defense industries.

He previously served as President of PIT-RADWAR, one of Poland's principal defense electronics manufacturers and a subsidiary of state-owned Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa (PGZ).

He also held senior management positions at Wojskowe Zakłady Elektroniczne and MESKO, where he was responsible for business development and cooperation with international defense partners.

His professional background includes involvement in major Polish military modernization programs, including PATRIOT and NAREW, as well as projects involving ammunition production, technology transfer and defense electronics.

Kowalczuk has also held leadership responsibilities within the Niewiadów Group, which is developing ammunition and other defense manufacturing capabilities in Poland.

His appointment brings operational experience from established defense manufacturers to an investment company seeking to expand Poland's privately controlled industrial base.

## Prime ASI Targets Ammunition and Autonomous Systems

Prime ASI's current investment portfolio includes AMC Polish Arsenal, a project focused on developing domestic production capabilities for 155 mm artillery ammunition.

According to the company's published investment information, Prime ASI holds a 20 percent stake in AMC Polish Arsenal, with a conditional option to increase its ownership to 51 percent.

The investment company also holds a 51 percent stake in Thalon Technologies, which is developing unmanned maritime platforms and associated navigation, communications and autonomous control systems.

Prime ASI intends to combine such investments with further acquisitions and partnerships involving companies from Poland and other Central and Eastern European markets.

Its investment model includes minority stakes, management support and potential increases in ownership as companies meet agreed development milestones.

The planned consolidation remains subject to financing, due diligence and individual investment agreements. The target of eight to ten companies is a strategic objective, not a list of completed acquisitions.

For Poland's defense industry, the strategy reflects growing private-sector interest in expanding production capacity and building industrial groups capable of competing for larger European and NATO defense contracts.

Kowalczuk's appointment positions Prime ASI to pursue these ambitions under an executive familiar with Poland's major defense manufacturers and international industrial partnerships.
