Axon is now a strategic partner in the drone start-up. Customers already include the US Department of Defense, among others.
Dedrone has raised $30.5 million. Axon led the Series C funding round. Existing investors such as Aqton Partners, Menlo Ventures, Felicis Ventures, Target Partners, TempoCap and JC2 Ventures founder John Chambers also re-invested in the startup.
"This investment is a strong endorsement of Dedrone's technology and team. Axon is an excellent strategic partner for providing airspace security to the public safety sector," said Dedrone CEO Aaditya Devarakonda. This year, the company has grown rapidly, expanding its drone defense system to 200 different drone models.
Jörg Lamprecht and Ingo Seebach founded Dedrone in 2014 in Kassel, Germany. Headquartered in San Francisco since 2016, the company now has a presence in 33 countries. Dedrone has developed a drone defense system that uses sensors to identify and locate drones. The technology is used by the US Department of Defense, among others, for security purposes.
