Titan Capital, a seed-stage venture capital firm, has launched a specialised investment vertical to fund startups innovating in India’s defence and strategic technology space.
With this program, Titan Capital is actively seeking to invest in startups working at the intersection of advanced hardware, aerospace, cybersecurity, and manufacturing. The focus is not only on national security but also on fostering deep-tech innovation, creating high-value jobs, and helping India become a net exporter of strategic technologies.
As part of this initiative, Titan Capital is also looking to collaborate with veterans from the armed forces, scientists, and experienced technologists who can help assess and guide these investments with strategic insight and domain expertise.
Kunal Bahl, Co-founder of Titan Capital, said, “We are at a historic inflection point where national security, deep-tech innovation, and startup agility are converging. India cannot achieve true self-reliance in defence by relying on imports or public funding alone. We need to back our brightest minds—engineers, researchers, and builders—to create sovereign, dual-use technologies that can shape not just India’s future, but the future of global defence. At Titan, we’ve always been a founder-first firm. This vertical extends that ethos into a sector that has national consequence.”
