Delian Alliance Industries has announced raising a $14M (approximately €12.3M) Series A to accelerate the production of affordable, autonomous systems that defend against invasion and incursion at a national scale. The round was co-led by Air Street Capital and Marathon Venture Capital, with participation from 201 Ventures, HCVC, Entropy Industrial Capital, and Nebular.
Delian Alliance Industries is a Greek defense technology company focused on autonomous systems for situational awareness and anti-access/area denial (A2/AD). Their technology seamlessly connects any sensor to any effector, enabling the autonomous detection and defeat of incoming threats across land, air, and sea. This integrated approach creates a defensive “dome” that protects democratic allies. With a NATO country-wide deployment already underway, the funding will accelerate the company’s efforts to meet growing international demand.
“Our adversaries are arming themselves with emerging technologies at a rapid industrial scale,” said Dimitrios Kottas, founder and CEO of Delian. “We’re in a race against time and should measure deployments in days, not decades. We’ve proven our systems in mission-critical environments and will now ramp up production internationally.”
Delian’s approach is to combine advanced AI with commercial hardware from allied nations. This builds on the recent lessons from Ukraine and the Middle East. It is not militarily or economically viable to defend against asymmetric threats and saturation attacks by relying on an ageing and expensive stockpile of weapons built for a different era.
Delian’s product suite is built for rapid integration into Europe’s evolving defense priorities, enabling swift delivery of sovereign capabilities at scale.
Moving on, the company plans to establish a cross-European industrial and talent footprint, expanding its engineering and field deployment teams to meet growing demand from NATO and partner democracies. The company is also scaling its engineering and deployment efforts across multiple regions while investing in R&D to enable operations in contested, GPS-denied environments.
