Future Foundation Capital backs technical founders building the infrastructure the next decade runs on — before the market knows their names.
Most VCs evaluate narrative. We evaluate the engineering. Technical founders are systematically underpriced by generalist funds — and that's where the alpha lives.
Two active positions and four deals in the pipeline. Every investment built on technical conviction before commercial narrative.
Former CIO and Deputy Division Chief of Avionics at NASA Johnson Space Center, where he led the FPGA and PCB lab building radiation hardened, flight qualified electronics and delivered human rated hardware to the International Space Station. Former Executive Director at JPMorgan. Board member of the Houston Spaceport Development Corporation. He underwrites deep tech the way he built it, from the physics up.
Commentary on deep technology from the engineering up: hardware teardowns, the physics behind the companies building the next decade of infrastructure, and what those advances actually mean. Written for readers who want the engineering, not the narrative.
First Principles Tech Talk is a technical series: short, substantive talks and moderated discussion for founders, engineers, and operators who reason about hard tech from the ground up.
