Cris Neckar is a venture capital investor at Two Bear Capital who brings nearly two decades of offensive security experience as a hacker and security researcher to his investment approach, applying concepts from exploit development and vulnerability discovery to understand and target disease pathways in biotech. After watching a parent go through cancer treatment, he shifted his focus toward precision medicine and AI-driven oncology, partnering with highly technical founders who excel at research but need help building companies around their deep technical advantages.

Notable Investments
Two Bear Capital operates a technical-first investing model with partners like neuroscientist Jenna Aronson leading biotech deals using their own lab-grade expertise, while explicitly fusing deep tech and life sciences in one fund where the same team underwrites both quantum security and drug discovery companies. The firm is headquartered in Whitefish, Montana, where they're building Two Bear Labs as a shared life-science facility and positioning themselves as a bridge between frontier security technology serving federal and defense buyers rather than purely commercial markets.
