Venture capital fund investing in defence and security technologies across NATO and allies.
GRIF Focus
As global interdependencies increasingly turn into vulnerabilities, western democracies face short and long-term threats — from geopolitical tensions and cyberattacks to climate-related disruptions. These challenges demand a strategic and resilient approach to defence, disaster preparedness, and innovation.
Selected Collaborations
Venture Fund, Resilience, Tech, Europe & NATO Allies
We support tech founders developing disruptive innovations in defence, security, and disaster management. We invest in startups based across NATO countries and allied nations. This is not a hype for us. We are active in this field for years. Our team and extended network bring deep expertise across all relevant sectors.
