Jeh Aerospace has raised $11 million in a Series A funding round led by Elevation Capital, with continued support from General Catalyst. The funding will be used to expand its aerospace manufacturing operations, including the development of large-scale factories and the advancement of software-defined manufacturing technologies.
In the 18 months since its seed round, the company has grown to over 100 engineers and technicians, delivered more than 100,000 flight-critical components, and secured $100 million in long-term contracts with aerospace firms.
Focus on software-defined manufacturing
Jeh Aerospace is working on scaling up its precision manufacturing using software, automation, and AI. The company states that this will enable more efficient and reliable production of aerospace components, with the aim of meeting increasing global demand.
Founder and CEO Vishal R. Sanghavi said, “We are redefining aerospace manufacturing with software-driven precision, ensuring that high-quality parts are delivered reliably and on time. This funding from Elevation Capital and General Catalyst will allow us to build mega factories and enhance our technology while continuing to deliver exceptional value to our global customers.”
The company has also launched two in-house initiatives this year: the Center for Skills, which trains engineers and technicians, and the Center for Resilience, a rapid-manufacturing unit focused on reducing lead times for new product introduction.
Ashray Iyengar, Principal at Elevation Capital, said, “Jeh has demonstrated exceptional execution and built a truly differentiated approach to aerospace manufacturing. Their software-defined manufacturing model addresses a fundamental challenge in the industry the need for both precision and agility in production.”
Expanding global footprint
Jeh Aerospace has operations in both the United States and India. It aims to combine access to the US market with India’s engineering talent pool, which it describes as a competitive advantage. The company plans to expand operations in both regions.
General Catalyst partner Akarsh Shrivastava commented, “Jeh Aerospace exemplifies the Global Resilience opportunity we’re investing in: companies that strengthen critical supply chains through responsible innovation. Their software-defined manufacturing approach and proven delivery demonstrate the scalable, reliable production the aerospace industry needs.”
In July 2025, Jeh also received investment from IndiGo Ventures, the venture capital arm of IndiGo airline, further broadening its strategic connections within the aviation ecosystem.
