Marque VC

Marque Ventures is an investment firm providing strategic capital and guidance to companies innovating within American defense, manufacturing, and deep technology. It targets early-stage ventures, employing proprietary due diligence and deal flow models to support capabilities aligned with national security needs. The firm's disciplined approach cultivates critical technology development.

Established in 2022, Marque Ventures was founded by a team, including Managing Director Jake Chapman, with significant defense investment experience. This group previously revitalized the Congressionally-funded Army Venture Capital Corporation (AVCC), gaining unique insight into defense innovation. Their background informed the firm’s purpose: capitalizing on national security opportunities.

Marque Ventures aims to be the premier partner for founders accelerating growth in the national security market, facilitating the deployment of cutting-edge technologies to address evolving global challenges.
