CisLunar Industries Secures Strategic Investments to Advance In-Space Power and Manufacturing Infrastructure
CisLunar Industries, a Colorado-based space technology company developing critical hardware and software for in-space power conversion and manufacturing infrastructure, has secured multiple strategic investments that are fueling its growth as demand for resilient space industrial systems rises. The company’s focus on scalable power processing, material handling, and resource utilization for the emerging cislunar economy has attracted venture investment from regional funds and prominent early-stage backers, underscoring investor confidence in its technology and market potential.
In July 2025, CisLunar Industries announced that it had received a significant investment from the Colorado ONE Fund, the venture capital arm of ONE Funds dedicated to accelerating critical defense and space technologies. The Colorado ONE Fund’s backing is intended to help accelerate the company’s development of advanced power infrastructure for spacecraft and in-space operations and to expand its engineering team while supporting key demonstration missions with government and commercial partners. That funding marks a milestone in CisLunar’s efforts to scale its Electronic Power Intelligent Conversion (EPIC) technology, which is designed to address bottlenecks in spacecraft power systems and boost mission capability by delivering resilient, efficient power processing units and material processing hardware adaptable for mass manufacturing on Earth and in orbit.
Just a few months later, in November 2025, CisLunar Industries confirmed another major investment into its Seed Round from Stout Street Capital, a Denver-based venture capital firm known for backing high-impact early-stage technology companies across sectors such as aerospace, energy, robotics, and advanced manufacturing. Stout Street Capital’s participation in the round is expected to accelerate development and production of CisLunar’s EPIC product line for power conversion, which the company says is meeting growing demand across aerospace and defense markets as well as commercial space applications. The investment reinforces CisLunar’s position as a leader in developing the infrastructure needed to support an expanding space economy that depends on reliable, scalable electrical power solutions.
Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Loveland, CisLunar Industries designs and builds scalable intelligent hardware and embedded software that transforms power for space systems. Its EPIC technology processes power for electric propulsion, directed energy, and high-power applications, reducing non-recurring engineering costs and customer lead times while leaving more room for mission payloads. The company’s products are designed for resilience and efficiency, addressing critical space mission requirements such as high power, unregulated inputs, and extreme environments.
CisLunar’s funding activity builds on its broader work within the space sector, where it has been involved in contracts and collaborations that validate its technology and strategic relevance. The company has been awarded program contracts by the U.S. Space Force and SpaceWERX to develop power and propulsion technologies, including a $1.9 million contract to create an interoperable modular power unit for scalable electric propulsion systems, demonstrating interest from national security space stakeholders in its engineering capabilities.
While the precise amounts raised in CisLunar’s venture rounds are not always disclosed, company disclosures and regulatory filings show meaningful capital formation through equity offerings that support its Seed and early growth phases. According to filings, the company reported its Seed VC – II funding involves equity investments from Seed-stage partners including Stout Street Capital and others, contributing to a total funding base exceeding several million dollars as of late 2025.
CisLunar’s fundraising and investor base highlight the growing interest in companies that support the infrastructure required to enable sustained operations in cislunar space — the region between Earth and the Moon that is increasingly seen as a frontier for exploration, commerce, and national security. Its scalable hardware and software solutions aim to serve spacecraft propulsion, power distribution, and in-space manufacturing applications, areas that investors see as essential to advancing long-duration missions and future space industrialization.
CEO and Co-Founder Gary Calnan has emphasized that the company’s strategic investments will help accelerate innovation and expand engineering capabilities as CisLunar prepares for upcoming demonstration missions and broader customer deployments. As the company continues to attract venture capital support and government contracts, its technology roadmap — including power conversion for electric propulsion and resource processing systems for in-space manufacturing — positions CisLunar Industries as a key participant in building foundational infrastructure for next-generation space exploration and industrial activity.
With backing from investors focused on space, defense, and deep-tech innovation, and a product portfolio that addresses critical gaps in spacecraft power and manufacturing infrastructure, CisLunar Industries is poised to advance its role in the evolving space economy by delivering hardware and software solutions essential for resilient, scalable, commercial and government space missions.
