Gridware: Funding, Investors & Team (Oct 2026)

Gridware focuses on improving and safeguarding the essential electrical grid network, which impacts every aspect of society. The consequences of grid failures can be disastrous, including wildfires, destruction of land, property damage, stalled progress, and loss of life. Our team develops advanced sensing systems to monitor and analyze the behavior of grid assets, enabling early detection and prevention of faults. This technology has been tested with utilities to enhance safety, reliability, and reduce customer outage times. As the demand for power grows, we are committed to protecting the current grid while preparing for the future. Gridware is a privately owned company with support from leading investors in climate technology and Silicon Valley, based in the Bay Area of northern California.

About FundedIQ's Gridware Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Gridware is left off this page rather than filled in.
