# Ossia Announces Strategic Partnership and Investment by In-Q-Tel to Deliver Cota Technologies to the U.S. Intelligence and Defense Community

 By [Ossia Inc.](https://www.ossia.com/blog/author/ossia-inc)

*In-Q-Tel partners with Ossia to bring Cota® Real Wireless Power™ to the U.S. national security community*

Ossia the leader in wireless power at a distance, is pleased to share the news of a partnership and investment by In-Q-Tel, the non-profit strategic investor that accelerates the development and delivery of new, innovative technologies to U.S. defense and intelligence agencies.

 Ossia’s flagship technology is Cota Real Wireless Power, a patented, award-winning technology that delivers power at a distance, without cables, charging pads, or line-of-sight. Cota technology can deliver meaningful power to many devices at the same time, in motion, at a considerable distance, safely and efficiently. All Cota-enabled devices can be activated, managed, and monitored via the Cota Cloud platform.

“Ossia is constantly innovating to bring new and differentiated solutions to market,” said Steve Taub, a Partner at In-Q-Tel. “Our partnership with Ossia, and investing in the Cota technology, which In-Q-Tel views as the most mature and capable wireless power offering in the market, allows us to dedicate resources that will take Cota to the next level. In-Q-Tel anticipates that Ossia’s fast growth and commercial traction will define Cota as the global standard for wireless power.”

“We are very excited to partner with In-Q-Tel,” said Doug Stovall, Chief Executive Officer of Ossia. “This partnership enables Cota-powered products to get to the government market faster. There is incredible demand and scale for wireless power in both military and intelligence agencies, and In-Q-Tel will assist in Ossia’s deployment of Cota Real Wireless Power across this community.”
