The greatest commercial technologies of the past 100 years have originated from U.S. Military or U.S. Government spending, such as GPS, the Internet and Semiconductors. Investing in dual-use technologies can keep the world safer while delivering disproportionate investor returns.

Our fund explores the immense commercial opportunities unlocked by dual-use innovations, spanning critical areas including Infrastructure Resilience, Dual-Use Artificial Intelligence (AI), Drones, UAVs, Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUVs), and Space Infrastructure and Energy (e.g. Lunar Habitats, Nuclear Propulsion, Earth-to-orbit logistics).
