Defense Tech Startup Epirus Seeks Over $150M in New Funding
Epirus, a defense technology startup known for its drone interception solutions, is in discussions to raise between $150 million and $200 million, led by 8VC. If successful, the funding could bring its valuation down to around $1 billion from a previous valuation of $1.35 billion. Founded in 2018, Epirus has raised nearly $300 million from notable investors like DCVC and Bedrock. The startup is among the few American defense tech unicorns, alongside Anduril and Shield AI, as 2025 defense funding remains uncertain following last year's highs.
