Investment thesis

Ferocity Capital backs ambitious scientific founders and research spin-outs, aiming to speed innovation for the U.S. and its allies by investing in cybersecurity and scientific discovery. Its process centers on market validation: it monitors corporate R&D, screens science and cybersecurity startups, and confirms product-market fit with two to three potential corporate partners before beginning due diligence. The firm focuses strictly on B2B opportunities in areas such as math, chemistry, physics, big data, AI/ML, software and software-enabled hardware, manufacturing, new materials, energy, data centers, agtech, semiconductors, logistics, biodefense, sensors, and critical-infrastructure and defense cybersecurity (IT/OT/IoT). It explicitly avoids apps, blockchain, crypto, and consumer businesses.
