KO Client Seasats Raises Strategic Investment from L3Harris Technologies

KO client Seasats, a maritime startup, recently announced that it has accepted a strategic investment from L3Harris Technologies, a global aerospace and defense technology innovator.

With the investment, Seasat’s autonomous ocean vehicles will partner with L3Harris products to create innovative maritime solutions for customers in the commercial and defense sectors.

In the press release, Seasats CEO Mike Flanigan says, ““When you take the network and organizational expertise that L3Harris has, and then add our unique platforms and fast-moving startup culture to the mix, you end up with really formidable capabilities. The timing, too, couldn’t be better. Maritime autonomy has been maturing for a decade and rapid growth in offshore wind and aquaculture combine with a renewed push by the Navy to make a perfect springboard for scaling.”

The KO team of Kevin Gibson, Jon Taylor, Brad Schoenfeld, John Kyed, and Caitlyn Knudson represented Seasats in the financing.
