Investment thesis
Syndicate 708 invests in deep tech companies across six verticals — space, aviation, maritime, industrial base and semiconductors, and national security software — writing early-stage checks from pre-seed to seed. Beyond capital, the firm operates an integrated platform that activates supply chains through structured partnerships with manufacturers in Taiwan, Korea, and Japan, while also building domestic US supplier capacity and connecting small manufacturers with defense and deep tech customers. It further supports portfolio companies with government relationships, allied market access, and industry knowledge networks. The firm operates across three regions (US, APAC, EU), has more than ten years of operating history, and has incubated over 75 companies.
