GHOST Ventures
Investing in defence, resilience, and industrial independence
Stealth. Precision. Strategic advantage.

Investing in mission-critical technologies for defense, resilience and the security of allied nations.

We invest in defense technologies, dual-use solutions and the production of critical components across Europe, the United States and partner countries.

Focus

Investments in defense companies, dual-use solutions and manufacturers of strategic components — from early stage to growth.

Geography

Europe, the United States and strategic allied markets.

Advantage

Capital, industrial networks and pathways to deployment.

Why now

Strategic advantage is becoming software-defined.

2026+

Battlefield advantage increasingly depends on software, data operations and autonomous systems.

Allied nations and industrial partners are accelerating procurement, modernization and the development of sovereign capabilities.

True industrial independence begins with access to critical components, key subsystems and domestic production capacity.

We pay particular attention to manufacturers of critical components and subsystems — including cameras, engines, navigation modules and communications systems — because industrial self-sufficiency starts with them.

Fund positioning

We deploy capital where strategic advantage is formed: in defense, resilience, cyber security and the industrial independence of the region.

Investment thesis

Defense, resilience and a strong industrial base are opening new opportunities.

01

Software-defined defense

Modern capability rests on software, autonomy, computing power and the ability to update decisions rapidly in the field.

02

Dual-use

Technologies from the civilian market are increasingly finding practical application in defense and security.

03

Regional independence

Strategic resilience increasingly depends on local manufacturing, repair capacity and access to critical components.

Focus areas

We support the next generation of strategic technology leaders.

We focus on technologies where urgent strategic need meets the potential for scale — where solutions create value for both the market and national security.
