Thesis

Seed-stage generalist backing 'spiky founders' with uncommon insight and technical depth, rather than investing along sector themes; looks for compounding moats such as proprietary data or network effects.

• CompanyArkenstone DefenseArkenstone Defense sells commercial technology companies a ready-made government-contracting back office — workforce operations, HR, payroll, insurance, personnel security, contracting support, compliance, and accreditation — so they can sell to the U.S. government without building that operational infrastructure themselves. Its Foundation product handles FedRAMP/ATO/CMMC compliance and contract management; its Cohort product is a PEO for defense and dual-use companies.
