Nawid Halimar

As the founder and CEO of AARES DEFENSE, I lead the development of innovative defense and aerospace systems, including AI powered target tracking and satellite tracking technology. My focus on precision engineering and scalable solutions ensures we provide robust defense capabilities to protect our loved ones and society.

I launched this project driven by a deep belief in freedom for Iran - and while circumstances limited what we could accomplish, that mission remains close to my heart. I’m hopeful that continued U.S. engagement under President Trump will help bring lasting peace and freedom to Iran and the broader Middle East.

In my role as an Advisor to the Board at Halimyar Group, I leverage my youthful perspective to provide modern insights that guide our family legacy into the future. My focus is on identifying and capitalizing on investment opportunities while collaborating with seasoned board members to ensure a seamless transition into the next era of business.

I’ve embarked on so many trips with my family group, endless lessons learned - endless countries seen, fair to say couldn’t have a better family run group - after I grew up I decided to overstep the family shadow and build my own name.

During my internship at Airbus, I immersed myself in the dynamic aerospace environment, where I felt an immediate connection with the team. I collaborated on various projects, enhancing my understanding of the industry while building strong relationships with colleagues. This experience not only solidified my interest in aerospace but also motivated me to consider future opportunities with the company. Graded with A for the internship.
