Bryan Mabry, Partner at New North Ventures, joins Behind the Capital to discuss his journey from the U.S. intelligence community and government service into venture capital. Drawing on experience as both an operator and investor, Bryan explains how New North backs early-stage dual-use technologies and why supporting founders goes far beyond simply writing a cheque.
The conversation explores emerging opportunities across autonomy, defence technology, space infrastructure and critical enabling technologies. Bryan also shares practical fundraising advice for technical founders, covering everything from cap table management and team building to common fundraising mistakes and what investors are really looking for when evaluating early-stage companies.
