Lockheed Martin Ventures and Strategic Investments

Lockheed Martin Ventures is the strategic investment arm of Lockheed Martin, dedicated to identifying and accelerating deep-tech pioneers and dual-use technologies. We invest in the breakthroughs that will shape the next generation of defense and aerospace capabilities.

Since our inception in 2007, our $100 million fund has grown to be a $1 billion evergreen fund and has partnered with more than 120 high-impact companies in the United States and worldwide. We back technologies that complement or redefine core mission areas and open untapped segments of the national security marketplace.
