“When you think about the outsized impact startups can have on our national security and prosperity by developing cutting-edge technologies that can enable positive outcomes, not only is that a super exciting thing to be a part of, it’s a critical mission and one I've been involved in first-hand for most of my career.”

Stephane Janson

I want to back and support innovative founders, disrupting old and inefficient industries, with fresh and daring ideas.”

Nina Hooper
