Silent Ventures

Silent Ventures is an early-stage venture firm that invests in exceptional founders building unrivaled aerospace, defense, and national security companies. The firm primarily targets concept-stage, Pre-Seed, and Seed investments, writing first checks into true early-stage companies in sectors including autonomous systems, propulsion, munitions, maritime security, drones, and defense AI. As founder Jackson Moses has stated: 'Defense tech is a generational opportunity best categorized as dot-com 2.0. It is the patient arbitrage of a massive market historically defined by inertia, occupied by imperfect legacy businesses, plagued by suboptimal public-private relationships, and hindered by entrenched structural deficiencies that incentivize improper behavior at the expense of national security.' Silent Ventures believes investing in defense startups is an effective way for LPs to meaningfully diversify risk, support highly motivated builders, capitalize on asymmetric upside, and unequivocally eliminate the emerging narrative of a new global order.
