Thesis

We invest in foundational technologies that strengthen both commercial leadership and national security capabilities. We back technical founders building dual-use innovations at the intersection of Aerospace, Defense, and Deep Tech. Portfolio companies demonstrate strong technical validation and capital efficiency, often bootstrapping to meaningful revenue before institutional investment.

Likely not a fit for

No consumer applications, non-technical founding teams, or companies without clear aerospace/defense relevance. We avoid late-stage investments outside our core sectors. No international companies outside US operations.
