CHAOS Industries, a technology company building the next generation of defense and critical industry technologies, today announces that the company has raised $145 million in Series B funding to support the next phase of its commercial growth and development. The Series B was led by Accel, with participation from 8VC, as well as Overmatch Ventures, Lerner Enterprises, and existing insiders. Proceeds will be used to spur the development of CHAOS Industries’ advanced detection, monitoring, and communication solutions to the defense, government, and commercial sectors, as well as to accelerate the company’s product development, hiring plans, and high-volume manufacturing. The Accel-led Series B round brings total funding raised by the company to $215 million since inception. The company also recently announced the appointment of former U.S. Congressman and Central Intelligence Agency veteran Will Hurd as its Chief Strategy Officer. Mr. Hurd’s decades of experience and deep understanding of defense technology make him uniquely positioned to support CHAOS Industries’ mission-driven engineering strategy and guide the company as it allocates these new resources.

In a statement John Tenet CHAOS Industries Founder and Co-CEO said, “U.S. national security is at an inflection point” “As our adversaries become more sophisticated, America must embrace next-generation technological innovation to combat more complex national security threats. This funding will accelerate CHAOS Industries’ ability to provide the cutting-edge technological solutions the U.S. and its allies need to remain secure.”

Today, CHAOS Industries is actively developing a suite of products known as Coherent Distributed Networks, a paradigm-shifting technology category, which enables unprecedented performance for sensors and effectors. The first product in this category, Vanquish, is a dual-use, multistatic commercial radar that provides early warning and tracking capabilities against unmanned aerial systems, missiles, and aircraft.
