Early- Stage Technology Venture Capital Fund

As Managing General Partner of Moonshots Capital, Kelly Perdew leads a seed-stage venture firm that invests in the extraordinary leadership principles that defined his military service and entrepreneurial success.

Together with his Moonshots co-founder and fellow military veteran, Craig Cummings, Kelly identifies and backs America’s most promising technology startups. They are guided by a proven investment thesis: the key factor in building a successful company is extraordinary leadership. Drawing from his West Point training and extensive entrepreneurial experience, Kelly has developed an exceptional ability to identify and support founders who demonstrate the rare combination of strategic vision, operational excellence, and unwavering resilience.

Moonshots Capital focuses on sectors where Kelly and Craig’s network creates unfair advantages for founders, including dual-use technology, cybersecurity, fintech, AI, and defense innovation. Beyond capital, Kelly takes an active role in portfolio companies through board seats or formal advisory roles, providing significant leadership insights and access to an unparalleled network spanning both government and private sectors.

The results speak for themselves: out of the 125 companies backed by Kelly, Craig, and Moonshots Capital, 27 have made successful exits, and the firm boasts more than 15 unicorns in its portfolio. Moonshots Capital’s funds routinely rank among the most successful in the United States.
