Strategic technology venture funding

Direct equity investment by an intelligence- or defense-affiliated venture fund in a dual-use technology company whose civilian product carries separate national-security relevance.

Where it's used

Defense bioeconomy
The government contracting and strategic-investment layer where biotechnology serves national-security ends — biodefense medical countermeasures, biological threat-reduction research, and intelligence-community venture funding of dual-use biotech — distinct from the commercial biosecurity-screening tools and civilian biomanufacturing this platform covers elsewhere.
