People who founded or co-founded a company tracked in the index.
Founders and co-founders of the companies covered in the index — operators and technologists who started a defense tech or dual-use company, as opposed to investors backing one.
FAQ
Does this include people who've since left the company?
Yes — founding a company is a historical fact, so departed founders remain listed here even after leaving day-to-day operations.
What if someone also holds a VC partner role?
They appear on both this page and the investor filter — the two aren't mutually exclusive, since some operators go on to invest after their company exits.
