Overview
Armada builds modular AI data centers and edge computing infrastructure deployable in days at factories, defense sites, oil fields, and remote industrial locations. CEO Dan Wright co-founded the San Francisco company, which raised $230M oversubscribed Series B in May 2026 at $2B pre-money co-led by Overmatch, BlackRock, and 8090 Industries. Johnson Controls partnered to manufacture modules at Galleon Forge One in Arizona. Existing backers include Lux Capital and Founders Fund.
