Transform your trajectory with tailored support, powerful connections, and a launchpad for scale across commercial and defense markets

About the program

The Novatus methodology, powered by our proprietary Defense Acceleration & Innovation (DAI) process, provides a systematic approach to building successful dual-use technology companies. Developed by industry veterans and proven across hundreds of projects, DAI integrates commercial market expertise with defense domain knowledge to dramatically improve capital efficiency, time to market, and rapid scale across multiple sectors.

Our veteran team brings deep expertise across commercial industries, defense, and government to provide comprehensive support through every stage gate. We help companies identify commercial opportunities, validate defense applications, and de-risk product-market-fit in both sectors. This dual-market approach ensures sustainable business models with diverse revenue streams.

As a key component of Novatus' broader ecosystem and investment approach, we propel early-stage companies toward achieving $100M+ revenue potential within 5 years. Through systematic evaluation and acceleration, we help validate commercial viability, secure both private sector and defense contracts, and scale across multiple markets. If you're ready to build a transformative technology company that serves both commercial and defense needs, the Novatus Accelerator Program is your ignition switch.
