Harpoon is America’s venture firm. We invest in early-stage
founders building the technologies critical to U.S. power. 

60+ portfolio companies. $1B+ in government contracts.

We were early to the thesis that national resilience and geopolitics
would define the next era of venture, recognizing the importance
of a firm purpose-built for America’s resurgence.

Since 2018, we have made early investments in breakout companies including: 

▪️Astranis - geostationary communications satellites 
▪️Solugen - sustainable chemical manufacturing 
▪️Genesis Therapeutics - AI for drug discovery
▪️Semgrep - improving software security and reliability 

Led by our Founder Larsen Jensen, a two-time Olympic Medalist and American record holder turned U.S. Navy SEAL turned venture capitalist, our team's diverse backgrounds and expertise bring a unique perspective to every investment.

Our mission is to back bold leaders shaping the next era of American innovation.

We’ve worked side-by-side with our founders to secure nearly $1B in U.S. government contracts—spanning non-dilutive grants to $100M+ programs of record.

At Harpoon, we’re more than investors--we’re your tactical advantage.
