Silent Ventures: 2023 In Review, 2024 Defense Tech Predictions
As a leading early stage defense tech fund, Silent Ventures is privileged to operate at the frontlines of America’s most critical frontier markets: aerospace, defense, and national security. In doing so, we’re exposed to exceptional founders and idiosyncratic ideas bordering on the edge of plausible science fiction.
Just like our Quarterly LP Reports, we’ve decided to publish the Silent Ventures Annual LP Report. These annual investor updates detail our year in review, fund performance, portfolio company achievements, fundraising timelines (we’re excited several founders are in the process of finalizing raises), and include informed predictions about the year ahead.
Why do we do this? Simple. Silent Ventures embraces three core truths regarding our relationship with the A&D ecosystem. It’s our responsibility to:
- Fundraise from incredible LPs and generate outsized returns on their behalf.
- Invest in the most ambitious founders (bordering on insane) and innovative companies (building things that matter) at the earliest of stages.
- Inform current defense tech participants and educate interested outsiders about A&D’s foundational pillars, first principles, and meaningful secular trends.
In doing so, Silent Ventures hopes that evermore exceptional builders dedicate their skills to the resurgence of American innovation, while phenomenal investors return to supporting the historical backbone of America’s DNA.
