Nomi Capital is an institutional latecomer by design. We back growth- and late-stage American defense and dual-use technology companies at their inflection point — the moment they move from the R&D phase to real revenue generation.
We target companies at their inflection point — going from the R&D phase to real revenue generation, not pre-product bets.
We combine primary investments with tactical secondary positions in proven late-stage companies — how a focused fund reaches Anduril- and Groq-tier cap tables.
Backed by roughly 150 high-net-worth investors, family offices, and RIAs who move fast on co-investments and hold for the long term — no investment-committee drag. That LP base is a feature, not a bug.
Aircraft, surface vessels, and ground systems that operate themselves.
The compute, inference, and connectivity layer of national security.
Rebuilding the industrial base with commercial speed.
Mobility, logistics, and infrastructure in orbit.
Advanced fuel and resilient power for defense and industry.
A generational rearmament is underway, and a new class of defense companies is emerging to rebuild our industrial base with commercial speed and cutting-edge technology. Nomi Defense Fund I is built to back the companies at the center of that transformation.
We are not a hype-tech fund. The companies we back scale the parts of the defense industrial base that actually matter — from autonomy and directed energy to the unsexy things like 155mm artillery and Hydra-70 rockets.
That seriousness is what separates Nomi from the crowd chasing early-stage lottery tickets. We invest where proven technology meets real production, real revenue, and real national need.
