Squadra Ventures is founder-led by a West Point-trained Army intelligence officer who ran classified NSA tech programs and built multiple national-security software companies, providing deep operator experience on both the DoD/intel and VC sides. The firm specializes in cyber and defense investments with hands-on support helping founders navigate the complex DoD and intelligence community buyer/funder/user/policymaker maze, including surviving political knife fights and lining up multiple champions rather than just making introductions.
