Blake Road Capital is led by veterans of the military, intelligence, and finance communities—united by an unwavering commitment to safeguarding our nation’s security.
We deliver capital, sector-specific insights, and strategic guidance to firms advancing national security priorities across defense, intelligence, and critical technologies.
Our focus is the overlooked lower-to-middle market of federal contractors—where deal sizes may be smaller, but the impact is outsized.
As larger funds move upstream, we fill the gap—empowering emerging government contractors to grow, acquire, and innovate at mission speed.
At Blake Road Capital, we back the builders of next-generation national security capabilities.
With deep roots in the defense, intelligence, and technology communities, we invest in companies advancing AI, autonomy, cybersecurity, software, data analytics, robotics, infrastructure and other mission-critical technologies—because in today’s world, “keyboard” and “knowledge” capabilities are as critical to national defense as traditional weapons systems.
