EXHIBIT 99.1
VisionWave Appoints Tony Fabrizio as Director, Aerospace
and Defense of Its UK Subsidiary, Strengthening UK and European Defense Expansion
Veteran defense and technology executive brings more than 25 years of
experience in the defense, government, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and digital transformation sectors
LOS ANGELES and LONDON – August 19, 2026 – VisionWave
Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: VWAV) (“VisionWave” or the “Company”), a technology company focused on advanced defense,
aerospace and artificial intelligence solutions, today announced the appointment of Tony Fabrizio as Director, Aerospace and Defense
of VisionWave Holdings UK Ltd, a subsidiary of VisionWave (the “UK Subsidiary”), strengthening the Company’s business
development capabilities across the United Kingdom and European defense markets.
Fabrizio has more than 25 years of experience spanning defense, government,
telecommunications, cloud infrastructure, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity and digital transformation. Throughout his career, he
has worked extensively with the UK Ministry of Defence (“MOD”), defense prime contractors, government organizations and international
technology partners. Each of the foregoing engagements was undertaken in roles with employers other than VisionWave.
His experience includes building defense and public-sector practices, developing
go-to-market strategies, establishing strategic partnerships and supporting complex government and defense technology programs. Fabrizio
previously served in senior roles with organizations including Oracle, BetterGov and Acronis SCS, among others.
At BetterGov, Fabrizio established the company’s defense-sector capability
and secured and delivered a £2 million (approximately US$2.7 million at current exchange rates) MOD program for that company. At
Oracle, he supported MOD transformation programs for that company.
Fabrizio has also developed and supported strategic engagements with defense
prime contractors and technology partners on behalf of his prior employers.
In his role with VisionWave, Fabrizio will lead business development and
sales activities for the Company’s products and services across the United Kingdom and Europe, with a particular focus on developing
relationships with government defense organizations, defense primes and strategic technology partners.
“Tony’s extensive experience navigating the UK defense ecosystem
and building relationships across government, defense primes and technology organizations makes him an important addition to our growing
European organization,” said Douglas Davis, Chief Executive Officer of VisionWave Holdings, Inc. “As VisionWave expands
its defense and aerospace platform internationally, we believe having experienced leadership on the ground that understands both advanced
technology and the procurement environment is essential. Tony brings that combination.”
The appointment represents another step in VisionWave’s strategy
to expand its commercial and strategic presence within the international defense and aerospace markets.
