## About

Based in California, United States and founded in 2024, Poseidon Tech Corporation, dba Poseidon Aerospace, provides autonomous cargo aircraft and unmanned aviation logistics solutions for the aerospace and defense industry. The company was founded by David Zagaynov (Co-Founder & CEO) and Parker Tenney (Co-Founder). Sources indicate the company develops unmanned cargo aircraft designed for commercial air freight and defense logistics operations. In September 2026, Poseidon Aerospace raised USD 60 million in Series A funding led by TQ Ventures, with participation from JAWS Estate Capital, G Squared, Hanwha Asset Management, Discipulus Ventures and Sovereign's Capital. Starship Ventures, Drover Ventures, Draper, Cade Ventures Management and other investors also participated in the round. As part of the deal, Schuster Tanger of TQ Ventures will join the company's board and Hugo Peterson of Starship Ventures will join the company's board as a board observer. The company works with commercial logistics operators, defense organizations, and supply-chain stakeholders to provide autonomous cargo aircraft, unmanned seaplanes, and aerial logistics solutions. The company develops unmanned aircraft platforms including the Heron unmanned seaplane and other autonomous cargo aircraft designed to transport goods in environments where traditional logistics infrastructure is limited. Its solutions are intended to enable faster, lower-cost cargo transportation for regional air freight, maritime-access logistics, and defense-related supply missions. The company also develops autonomous flight technologies and aircraft systems supporting commercial and defense logistics operations. Poseidon Aerospace generates revenue through partnerships and direct sales of their unmanned cargo aircraft systems. These transactions occur through B2B engagements with companies in the logistics and defense sectors, who acquire Poseidon's platforms to enhance their operational capabilities. The firm's flagship offerings are structured within a pricing model accommodating varying client requirements, potentially involving one-time purchases or long-term contracts. Specific pricing details remain undisclosed, but the sales model is designed to enable effective integration of Poseidon's technologies into existing logistics frameworks, addressing both commercial and defense markets. The company will use the September 2026 funding to advance development of its aircraft, conduct flight testing, expand production capacity, grow its engineering and operations teams, and support customer programs.
