Overview
CHAOS Industries, based in Los Angeles with additional offices in Washington D.C., San Francisco, Seattle, and London, develops distributed sensing and electronic-warfare hardware for military and critical-infrastructure customers. Its flagship Coherent Distributed Networks (CDN™) technology synchronizes radar and communications nodes across land, sea, and air domains, and its Vanquish™ multistatic radar system is built to provide early warning against unmanned aerial systems, cruise missiles, and aircraft.
The company was founded in 2022 by John Tenet, Dr. Bo Marr, Gavin Hood, and Brett Cummings, several of whom previously built the microwave-weapons company Epirus together. CHAOS has grown quickly amid a broader defense-technology funding boom, raising four disclosed rounds totaling roughly $1 billion between March 2023 and November 2025, backed by investors including 8VC, Accel, New Enterprise Associates, and Valor Equity Partners.
Private securities are speculative, illiquid, and involve risk of complete loss of principal. You should be prepared to hold private securities for an extended period; there is no assurance of a secondary market, an IPO, or other liquidity event. You are fully responsible for conducting your own due diligence. Pricing is indicative — nothing here is an offer of securities.
