Epirus

Epirus is a defense technology company focused on developing next-generation directed energy systems to address emerging threats like drone swarms and electronic warfare. Headquartered in Torrance, California, the company’s flagship product, Leonidas, is a high-power microwave (HPM) weapon system capable of disabling multiple drones at once using precise electromagnetic pulses. By leveraging solid-state gallium nitride technology, Epirus delivers scalable, mobile solutions that offer militaries a cost-effective and rapidly deployable alternative to traditional kinetic systems. Their products are being integrated into U.S. Army programs and next-gen mobile platforms, positioning them as a critical player in modern battlefield defense.

=Epirus is uniquely positioned at the intersection of deep-tech innovation and rising global defense demand. As drone proliferation accelerates, governments are urgently seeking effective countermeasures—creating a rapidly expanding market for non-kinetic solutions. Epirus has secured significant funding, including a $250M Series D round, and holds multi-million-dollar contracts with key defense agencies. With a strong leadership team, defensible IP, and early customer validation, Epirus represents a rare opportunity to back a defense-first technology company delivering real-time capabilities in one of the most strategically relevant domains of the next decade.
