The Company launches as a scaled, proprietary intelligence platform purpose-built for the Intelligence Community, Department of War, and national security enterprise

WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AE Industrial Partners, LP (“AE Industrial” or the “Firm”), a private investment firm focused on technologies and services considered critical to national and economic security, announced today that it is launching Attilius Technologies (“Attilius” or the “Company”), a new national security focused intelligence platform, with the acquisition and rebranding of a leading provider of data intelligence and analytic solutions. AE Industrial's partnership with Attilius is rooted in a long-standing relationship with its founder and the Firm looks forward to working alongside the management team to drive the Company's next stage of growth.

“Data intelligence that enables government agencies to detect, assess, and respond to an evolving threat landscape with greater speed and precision has become an increasingly critical component of national security,” said Kirk Konert, Managing Partner at AE Industrial. “Building on our long track record of investments that advance the United States’ defense and intelligence objectives, we believe the establishment of Attilius creates a strong foundation for success, positioning the platform to become one of the preeminent national security intelligence providers.”

Attilius is a leading vertically integrated, scaled national security intelligence platform delivering end-to-end solutions, from primary source data collection to deployment that solves some of the most complex mission-critical challenges for the intelligence community and Department of War.

“This acquisition is a strong representation of AE Industrial’s thematic focus in national security and distinctly positions us to accelerate the platform’s growth,” said Chris Aguemon, Vice President at AE Industrial. “With its strong mission pull, software IP underpinned by proprietary data, and deep customer trust, we look forward to leveraging the full resources, operational expertise, and industry relationships of our firm to support the Company's continued expansion across the national security ecosystem.”
