Investment Thesis

Green Flag Ventures invests in Ukrainian dual-use startups that have been battle-tested on the front line, believing that wartime innovation produces tomorrow’s market leaders. Their core philosophy is to bridge front-line technology from Ukraine to Western markets (NATO and Fortune 500), recognizing that ‘Defense needs tomorrow’s tech today; mainstream venture looks away.’ They operate as a frontier-market VC that puts capital on the frontline and brings war-proven solutions to the West, based on the principle that incoming fire creates instant feedback loops enabling rapid iteration and validation.

What Sets Them Apart

On-the-ground presence in Ukraine with 10+ years embedded in the tech sector
Portfolio companies are battlefield-validated before entering supply chains
Access to frontline telemetry and combat data that train AI models competitors cannot access
Deep bench of defense practitioners including co-founder of U.S. Defense Innovation Unit, ex-CIA officers, Air Force electronic warfare leaders, and NATO strategists
Capital-efficient exit potential through strategic buyers and NATO budget surges rather than decade-long IPO waits
Unique position to facilitate first contracts with allied governments and critical infrastructure
