Investment thesis
Seed Round Capital focuses on deep-tech and dual-use founders raising pre-seed or seed rounds in defense, dual-revenue, and government-adjacent markets that generalist investors often avoid. The firm looks for capital-efficient engineer-founders whose technology solves urgent, timely problems that existing solutions cannot, and who are coachable with a clear path to traction. Beyond capital, it offers a structured fundraising process, mentoring from seasoned entrepreneurs, investor introductions, pitch coaching, peer meetings, and workshops. It has co-invested with established deep-tech and dual-use VCs and backed companies working on carbon nanotube materials, radioisotopic power systems, magnetic gears, and autonomous maritime platforms.
