Founders Fund, the [[Peter Thiel]] venture firm, led Anduril's early funding rounds and remains its lead investor. Stephens is simultaneously a Founders Fund partner and Anduril's executive chairman, which means the lead investor and the company's board leadership are held by the same individual. Founders Fund led Anduril's Series G round in 2025, raising 2.5 billion dollars at a 30.5 billion dollar valuation, with a reported one billion dollars of the round coming from Founders Fund itself.[^2][^6]
The Anduril-Founders Fund relationship applies the Thiel-network thesis that the Pentagon should procure from Silicon Valley-style commercial vendors rather than from the traditional defense primes ([[Lockheed Martin]], [[Raytheon]], [[Northrop Grumman]], [[Boeing]]). The investment thesis holds that the traditional primes have captured procurement through cost-plus contracting and slow development cycles, and that software-first commercial vendors can deliver autonomous systems at lower cost and faster iteration. The 30.5 billion dollar valuation makes Anduril the highest-valued private defense-technology company.[^2]
