Pillsbury advised Epirus in raising $250 million via an oversubscribed Series D funding round, led by 8VC and Washington Harbour Partners LP. The funding is expected to position the company to scale production of its Leonidas™ product line.
A high-growth technology company, Epirus is focused on addressing the asymmetric challenges of national security. The company’s flagship technology, Leonidas™, is a scalable solid-state, high-energy, high-power microwave (HPM) technology for counter-electronics applications. Proven effective in Department of Defense testing, it successfully counters drones, drone swarms and other electronics.
According to an official press release, the investment will enable Epirus to grow and attract the best talent, strengthen supply chain resiliency, upgrade internal systems and processes, expand into international and commercial markets, and increase the company’s innovation and manufacturing footprint in the U.S.
