The NATO Innovation Fund (NIF) is an independent venture capital firm backed by 24 NATO Allies.



With a €1 billion flagship fund, the NIF will invest in advanced science and technology driven enterprises that will enhance our nations’ defence, security and resilience.



For us, high-impact verticals include artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, energy & propulsion, materials science, and space. We are passionate about autonomy, new materials and quantum computing, and want to shore up cutting-edge hardware and software.



We will directly invest into deep tech driven enterprises, identifying opportunities across all the 24 participating Allied nations, as well as into other funds who will help realise our mission of collective security and prosperity.



Over time, the NIF’s investments will attract and encourage more like-minded investors, and help transform how nations and the private sector work together to face emerging challenges.
