Briefing
Apex’s $200 million Series D and $1 billion valuation underpin a rapid move from prototype to production for configurable satellite buses — hardware explicitly positioned to meet repeatable defense mission needs.
The raise aligns with growing Pentagon procurement pull: the Space Force’s FY2026 $11 billion increase and recent Modular Open System Bus awards (~$237M) demonstrate budget and contract trends that are steering commercial spacetech toward defense work.
