We partner with extraordinary founders to transform frontier science into operational reality—advancing space, infrastructure, and automation to shape the future.
The convergence of geopolitics, defense spending, and commercial innovation has created unprecedented timing for deep tech investment. The U.S. has committed unprecedented funding toward 14 critical technologies to counter global rivals and strengthen national resilience. At the same time, plummeting launch costs and bipartisan support are unlocking a $1.8T space economy by 2035, while private capital in space and defense tech already exceeds $12B annually. This alignment of government demand, market growth, and private innovation makes the timing for a specialized deep tech fund exceptionally compelling.
