A South Korean company specializing in artificial intelligence chip technology announced Monday it has successfully secured $400 million in new investment funding, pushing the firm’s overall value to roughly $2.34 billion as it pursues aggressive growth in American markets.
Rebellions disclosed that Mirae Asset Financial Group and the Korea National Growth Fund spearheaded the investment round, which follows a $250 million Series C funding completed in September 2025. The company’s total accumulated funding now reaches $850 million.
With $650 million collected over the previous six months representing more than three-quarters of all funding received to date, company officials said they are beginning an ambitious growth phase. Their strategy centers on American market penetration, increased manufacturing of the Rebel100 platform, and preparations for a potential public stock offering.
Established in 2020, the company specializes in creating neural processing units designed for artificial intelligence inference operations. Company representatives noted that demand for streamlined AI infrastructure continues climbing among cloud service providers, telecommunications companies, and government-sponsored programs, especially throughout the United States.
The government-backed Korea National Growth Fund contributed 250 billion won, equivalent to $165.45 million, marking the first direct government investment through the “K-Nvidia” program.
This “K-Nvidia” initiative, managed jointly by the Financial Services Commission and the Ministry of Science and ICT, seeks to develop a globally competitive semiconductor company as competition intensifies in an industry currently controlled by American corporations like Nvidia.
The substantial investment highlights increasing investor enthusiasm for companies creating alternatives to established AI chip manufacturers, driven by worldwide demand for cost-effective and practical artificial intelligence systems.
Notable investors backing Rebellions include Aramco’s Wa’ed Ventures, Arm, KT, Samsung, SK Hynix, and SK Telecom. The company maintains its primary headquarters in South Korea while operating additional facilities in the United States.
Mirae Asset’s investment portfolio also features SpaceX among its holdings.
