Divergent Technologies has closed a $290 million Series E funding round and reached a valuation of $2.3 billion. The round was led by Rochefort Asset Management and included $250 million in equity capital along with $40 million in debt capital. This significant investment will enable the company to expand its manufacturing capacity and continue developing new capabilities for future product families.
Founded in 2014, Divergent has built its reputation around the Divergent Adaptive Production System, or DAPS, which is recognized as the world’s first fully digital manufacturing platform. DAPS integrates rapid design, additive manufacturing, and automated assembly into one streamlined process. This approach enables companies to design and produce complex hardware more quickly and at a lower cost compared to traditional manufacturing methods. It also enables higher performance by allowing engineers to optimize designs in ways that were previously impossible.
Divergent’s technology has attracted customers across several industries, beginning with luxury automotive manufacturers such as Aston Martin, Bugatti, and McLaren. These early partnerships demonstrated the potential of DAPS to deliver lightweight, high-performance components for some of the most demanding vehicles in the world. In 2022, Divergent expanded into aerospace and defense, starting with projects for General Atomics. Since then, the company has rapidly grown its presence in these sectors and now works with major organizations, including Lockheed Martin, Raytheon, and Triumph Group. Its contracts range from providing individual replacement parts to producing entire airframe systems.
The company’s growth has been remarkable. In 2025 alone, Divergent’s revenue increased more than fivefold, reflecting the strong demand for its digital manufacturing solutions. During just the first half of the year, the company introduced over 200 new aerospace and defense part numbers, bringing its total to more than 600 unique parts across multiple industries. This rapid expansion highlights both the scalability of the DAPS platform and the growing recognition of Divergent as a leader in advanced manufacturing.
How the funding will be used: With the new funding, Divergent is well-positioned to accelerate its mission of transforming how complex hardware is designed and built. By combining cutting-edge digital tools with additive manufacturing and automation, the company is reshaping production for industries that require speed, precision, and cost efficiency.
