Fargo Firm Packet Digital to receive up to $50M in federal procurement dollars

North Dakota’s tech sector is getting a major boost as Packet Digital secures up to $50 million in federal funding to expand its battery manufacturing footprint in Fargo. The award comes through a Defense Department initiative aimed at fast-tracking innovative technologies for military use, particularly from smaller contractors. The investment will help scale production at the company’s Badland Batteries facility, supporting next-generation lithium-ion cells designed for unmanned air, sea, and space systems. State leaders say the move highlights North Dakota’s growing role in national defense innovation.
