Defense & National Security

A defense innovation platform and advanced systems integrator.

A113 Venture Fund is a strategic technology organization supporting mission-critical capability development for the national security community — combining applied R&D, venture incubation, prime partnerships, and capture intelligence to deliver advanced systems at the speed of relevance.

Mission

“A113 and its ecosystem partners support mission-critical technologies for national security applications across land, sea, air, cyber, and space domains.”

Capability Domains

Where A113 operates.

From orbital systems to the tactical edge — the domains where A113 invests, builds, and integrates capability for the warfighter and the broader national security enterprise.

Department of Defense Initiatives

Program-of-record alignment, SBIR / STTR transition support, and capture for prime and government customers across the DoD enterprise.

Space & Orbital Technologies

Power, payload, downlink, and integration architectures for the next decade of national-security space and resilient orbital platforms.

Tactical Edge AI

Edge inference, sensor fusion, and AI orchestration deployed at the tactical edge — engineered for contested, GPS-denied, and bandwidth-constrained environments.

Energy Resilience

Storage, microgrids, and hardened power infrastructure for forward bases, critical infrastructure, and contested operating environments.

Autonomous Systems

Ground, air, and maritime autonomy with integrated sensing, mobility, and mission software built for defense and dual-use operators.

AI-Enabled Command Infrastructure

Decision support, common operating pictures, and AI-augmented command and control for joint and coalition operations.

Secure Communications

EW-aware waveforms, private wireless, and resilient links for the contested electromagnetic spectrum.

Digital Battlespace Modernization

Zero-trust architectures, post-quantum security, and resilient digital infrastructure for next-generation warfighting.

Aerospace Systems

Sovereign aerospace platforms and mission systems integration aligned to program requirements and appropriations cycles.
