Investment thesis
Scout Ventures is a seed-stage venture capital firm focused on the intersection of national security and critical technology innovation, spanning AI, autonomy, robotics, cybersecurity, quantum, advanced energy and storage, space and aerospace, and microelectronics. The firm targets dual-use technologies with both commercial and defense applications, and leverages its defense and national lab networks to help portfolio companies access non-dilutive capital. Its team is largely composed of military service academy graduates with backgrounds in active service, the intelligence community, and entrepreneurship. With roughly two decades of early-stage investing experience, the firm positions itself as a central node for deals within the defense and national security community.
