Our Approach
Guided by founders and operators, our approach uses a venture studio model to provide a combination of capital and shared services across our portfolio to handle financial, business administration, and go-to-market strategies.
Fund Investment Thesis
The $10M Riphean National Security Fund focuses on innovative US start-ups and early-stage companies with practical applications to national security, motivated to grow and exit in 2-4 years, that leverage our firm’s venture studio approach and myriad experience across GovCon, military and commercial sectors.
Our collective experiences as founders, operators, and investors make us uniquely qualified to identify and select entrepreneurs and operators and help them achieve accelerated growth leading to exit.
