IronGate is a venture fund focused on dual-use national security technology, investing both directly in early-stage companies and in other venture capital partnerships that back technologies strengthening the U.S. and allied nations, including the UK, NATO, and AUKRUS-related efforts. Its portfolio leans heavily toward space and defense infrastructure—like satellites, orbital systems, and lunar projects—often backing non-traditional defense startups that bring military-origin technology, such as radar systems built by former defense engineers, into civilian and commercial markets.
