Why
Valgard Ventures?
Ongoing geopolitical upheaval and rapid technological change make it imperative for strategists and policymakers to adapt and develop new paradigms, yet paradigm change is inherently challenging. Institutional inertia often hampers the adoption of new technologies and investments in new infrastructure by U.S. and allied armed forces as well as the dispersion of such investments into the broader economy through dual-use applications.
Developers of dual-use technologies and infrastructure must find ways to break through the inherent resistance to change to accelerate and de-risk their go-to-market strategies. Valgard Ventures is uniquely positioned to bring U.S. and allied military thinkers, political leaders, capital allocators, and innovators closer together, breaking down functional and geographic silos.
What can Valgard Ventures
do for you?
Valgard Ventures possesses the resources to operate effectively across the spectrum of innovation, finance, military, and political ecosystems. Our solutions are designed to foster dialogue and integration, breaking down silos of insulated thinking. Due diligence on all investments should encompass a holistic assessment of a given technology's ability to gain traction across these four ecosystems. Importantly, this assessment should assume a certain level of agency - the right management team will have the capacity to actively gain traction across these ecosystems and shape them effectively.
