Victory Six began at the Hay-Adams Hotel in Washington, D.C. Andrew Clausnitzer, Martin Rahmani, and LTG Gene Blackwell founded the firm to close the gap between innovative companies and the government customers who need them.
The name was General Blackwell’s call sign. In radio protocol, six identifies the commander. That sense of responsibility remains central to the firm.

A lasting sense of responsibility.
Before the dual-use movement had a name, Victory Six's founders saw the best defense startups being steered away from the mission by boards that couldn't wait out the government's timeline. So we built a firm that aligns patient capital, committed founders, and the needs of the warfighter at the same time, and we surround those companies with the full ecosystem it takes to win in defense.
