National Security Innovation Capital (NSIC)

Abstract

The focus is funding the commercialization and scaling dual-use, hardware-based technologies that are critical to the military These technology areas are currently severely under-served by the private U. S. venture capital industry and often funded by strategic and persistent capital from China. NSIC’s funding support will enable companies to further develop their technologies. The resulting reductions in technical risk, along with the signaling of DoD interest in such dual-use companies, will attract trusted private investment that might otherwise sit on the sidelines. The initial areas of interest for NSIC include rare earth elements technologies, batteries and portable power systems, small drones, quantum sensors and devices, and space components and subsystems.
