Layup Parts is a Huntington Beach, California company building a software-defined manufacturing platform for custom composite parts. Through its FiberPortal portal, engineers upload a 3D model, configure materials and ply layups, get an instant interactive quote, and receive finished carbon fiber or fiberglass parts - with quality documentation - in as little as two weeks. Founded in 2024 by former Anduril and Boring Company engineer Zack Eakin, the company pitches itself as the 'Amazon of composites,' automating the slow, quote-by-email world of composite fabrication for aerospace, defense, motorsports and high-tech customers. It raised a $42M Series A in June 2026 led by Marlinspike.
PreVeil is a Boston-based cybersecurity company, born out of research at MIT, that delivers end-to-end encrypted email and file sharing built on zero trust principles. Its data is never decrypted on any server, so it stays protected even if passwords are stolen, admin accounts are hijacked, or servers are breached. PreVeil has become the go-to compliance platform for defense contractors and other regulated industries needing to meet CMMC, NIST 800-171, ITAR, and DFARS requirements at a fraction of the cost of legacy alternatives.
