Divergent Reports Funding Boost to Scale Digital Manufacturing for US Defense

Divergent Technologies, Inc. reports the closing of its Series E financing, which raised $290 million at a $2.3 billion valuation. Rochefort Asset Management led the round, which is comprised of $250 million in equity capital and $40 million in debt capital.

Divergent is creator of the Divergent Adaptive Production System (DAPS), a digital manufacturing platform that allows design, additive manufacturing, and automated assembly. The new capital will scale manufacturing capacity for the business and fund the development of new capabilities for upcoming product families.

“Divergent was founded to transform the built world with a software-defined manufacturing platform,” says Lukas Czinger, chief executive officer and co-founder of Divergent. “This funding enables us to scale DAPS for aerospace and defense, expand our world-class team, and strengthen America’s industrial base with a truly next-generation system.”

Divergent designs and builds hardware for aerospace, defense, and automotive customers using its digital manufacturing platform. 

“Divergent is delivering exactly what America needs—a stronger, faster, and more adaptable industrial base,” says Kyle Bass, do-CEO of Rochefort Asset Management. “By uniting advanced software and hardware into a single platform, Divergent is proving that the U.S. can out-innovate and out-produce on the global stage. We are confident this team will redefine manufacturing and strengthen America’s position in the industries that matter most.”

Divergent’s initial customer base included luxury automotive OEMs such as Aston Martin, Bugatti, and McLaren. In 2022, the company expanded into aerospace and defense with initial work for General Atomics. Now, Divergent has contracts with various aerospace and defense customers, including General Atomics, Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Triumph Group. The company’s revenue has grown, and in the first half of 2025 alone Divergent introduced over 200 new aerospace and defense part numbers, bringing its total to more than 600 unique parts across industries.
