Aalyria Reaches $1.3 Billion Valuation With $100 Million Series B
Gunderson Dettmer represented Aalyria, an advanced aerospace communications company, in its $100 million Series B financing, valuing the company at $1.3 billion. The round was led by Battery Ventures and J2 Ventures, with participation from DYNE and other investors.
Aalyria is building the next generation of space-based communications infrastructure designed for high-performance networking in complex, dynamic environments. The new funding will accelerate Aalyria’s mission to make resilient, high-throughput networks in motion practical at global scale.
“We started Aalyria to build what space has been missing: a true communications and networking layer that scales with human and market demand,” said Aalyria CEO Chris Taylor, in the announcement of the transaction. “This funding accelerates our path to becoming that ubiquitous control plane: the digital cartilage that connects thousands of independent satellites, aircraft, ships, fiber, and ground stations into a single, intelligent network that can route around failures, optimize for mission priorities, and adapt in real-time. We're not just connecting space systems - we're making space infrastructure as reliable and programmable as the Internet itself.”
The Gunderson deal team was led by Brad Krack and included Jesse Birbach, Nathan Lovejoy, Travis Glock, Chase Beckstead, Felipe Hasenohr, Lucine Mikhanjian, and Matt Mort.
