Frequently asked questions
Who runs investment decisions at Silent Ventures?
Jackson Moses, the firm's Founder and Managing Partner, runs investment decisions. He is a serial entrepreneur who previously founded Spectrum AI and serves as a venture partner to several large firms, sourcing deals for Founders Fund, a16z, Lightspeed, and NEA, among others.
What investment stages does Silent Ventures target?
The firm focuses on concept-stage, Pre-Seed, and Seed investments — describing its checks as 'actual first checks into true early stage companies.' The syndicate arm, Silent Capital, can participate across multiple stages.
Which sectors does Silent Ventures avoid?
The firm explicitly focuses on aerospace, defense, national security, and deep technology. Companies outside those verticals — consumer software, general enterprise SaaS, or therapeutics, for example — do not fit the investment mandate.
What is Silent Ventures' known posture on co-investments alongside external GPs?
Co-investment is central to the model. Jackson Moses has sourced deals for 8VC, Founders Fund, a16z, Lightspeed, NEA, Quiet Capital, and Susa Ventures, and the firm frequently participates in rounds led by these firms — including recent raises for Saronic, Castelion, and CHAOS Industries.
