The startup has partnered Amplitude, a major manufacturer of ultrafast lasers, to improve two laser systems for inertial fusion energy<ref>{{Cite web |title=Focused Energy and Amplitude Enter $40 Million Agreement to Advance High-Energy Lasers Beyond the State-of-the-Art for Inertial Fusion Energy |url=https://www.focused-energy.co/news-release/focused-energy-and-amplitude-enter-40-million-agreement-to-advance-high-energy-lasers-beyond-the-state-of-the-art-for-inertial-fusion-energy |access-date=2025-11-27 |website=www.focused-energy.co |language=en}}</ref>. The new technology will help develop and determine the laser parameters needed to commercialise Focused Energy's direct drive laser fusion approach. This project is being financed by the [[Federal Agency for Breakthrough Innovations in Germany]] (SPRIND).
