Option3 Ventures

With a portfolio that includes earlier stage, growth, and buyout (pending) deals, we primarily seek control investments in mid-market companies, particularly in areas that are national priorities as we build or assemble leaders of tomorrow. We primarily seek control investments in the growing cybersecurity mid-market, seeking to build champions with the scale to bring cutting-edge products to market efficiently, thereby ensuring the security and resiliency of the country. We founded Option3 in 2015 as a specialist cybersecurity investment firm with the mission to make high-risk-adjusted returns by investing in those companies and capabilities that America most needed in the coming five years. In that time, we have invested in 9 companies, with three successful exits and a further four pending. Option3’s success lies in combining a deep heritage in the national security community with decades of experience in the investment industry. But our focus has evolved.
