Deeptech Dual-Use & Defense Investment: where are the real opportunities?
EVENT DETAILS
Three investors, Mathieu Costes (Partner, Airbus Ventures), Aymerik Renard (General Partner, Hardware Club) and Francois Veron (Founding Partner, Newfund), sit on cap tables that span European sovereignty plays, dual-use breakthroughs and transatlantic deeptech. Together they will confront the real questions facing investors today:
Dual-use or pure defense: where is the real risk/return? What credible exits in a single-buyer, export-controlled market? How can a 10-year fund finance a 7-year procurement cycle? Dedicated vehicles, sovereign co-investments, structured debt or can classical VC adapt? Will European VCs hand their continents champions to US cap tables?
