DeFli Networks raises USD23 million in funding – “company valued at USD82 million”

 UTM and drone detection-as-a-service  company DeFli Networks has announced it has secured USD23 million in Series A funding, valuing the company at USD82 million.

The investment is sourced from a combination of bond issuance, $FLI token presale, and direct venture capital investment. “The influx of capital will empower DeFli to bolster its four core “network as a service” offerings tailored for the unmanned aviation sector, “ says the company. “These include UTM Service with highly granular ADS-B data, Drone Detection as a Service utilizing frequency scanning and passive radar, UAS Communication as a Service leveraging their C-Band DeLink infrastructure, and Charging as a Service for UA operators.

“A significant portion of the investment will be dedicated to the development of DeFli’s proprietary L3 blockchain, engineered specifically to encrypt and process high-volume time series data. Notably, DeFli aims to manufacture all hardware within the United States, ensuring compliance with CCP regulations and bolstering domestic production capabilities.”

“With this investment, we’re poised to exponentially scale our network and advance towards our vision of global coverage across all service offerings,” said a spokesperson for DeFli. “Our focus on Drone Detection as a Service has garnered substantial interest, particularly in light of regulatory developments. By offering our services on a subscription basis, we’re empowering users to access cutting-edge technology without the burden of significant upfront costs.”

DeFli Networks operates its own L3 Blockchain, using the Arbitrum Stack with Base as a Settlement Layer and Celestia DA as the data layer. Within this ecosystem, the $FLI token serves as the gas token. Hosts play a pivotal role in the DeFli ecosystem, providing critical infrastructure to the UAS industry and earning rewards in cryptocurrency. Meanwhile, users benefit from a modular UI offering a range of services tailored to their UAS requirements, from UTM solutions to drone detection and communication services, says the company.

“With a diverse clientele spanning international agencies, law enforcement, and private sector entities, DeFli is poised for exponential growth in the coming year. The company projects $9 million in revenue over the next 12 months, fueled by increased demand for its pioneering solutions.”
