Hadrian has raised additional funding to accelerate growth of its automated manufacturing operations, bringing the company’s valuation to $1.6 billion. The Los Angeles–based firm focuses on high-precision, software-driven manufacturing for aerospace and defense customers, where production speed and reliability are increasingly critical.
Hadrian operates vertically integrated factories built around automation, robotics, and proprietary software to manufacture complex metal components. Its model emphasizes rapid onboarding of new parts, tight process control, and scalable production without relying on traditional contract manufacturing networks. The company has positioned automation as core infrastructure rather than a supplemental efficiency layer.
The funding reflects sustained investor interest in reshoring and modernizing advanced manufacturing. As governments and primes push for more resilient supply chains, companies like Hadrian are attracting capital by combining automation, digital workflows, and domestic production to address long-standing bottlenecks in aerospace and defense manufacturing.
