Golden-based Infinite Power Solutions landed $34.7 million in venture financing in September.
On Monday, the venture-capital arm of the Central Intelligence Agency announced it too wants a piece of the company.
Infinite, a privately held company developing thin-film batteries used in everything from cellphones to smart bombs, received an undisclosed investment from In-Q-Tel, a government-backed venture capital fund, based in Arlington, Va.
Founded in 1999, In-Q-Tel finances companies that “serve the national security interests of the United States,” according to press materials.
The deal comes two months after Infinite raised money from several traditional venture funds, including D.E. Shaw Group and Polaris Venture Partners, financing to be used to outfit the company’s manufacturing facility west of Denver.
