Frontier House is a private, members-only club located in Washington, D.C., designed to serve as the premier convening point for defense tech founders, venture
Washington rewards the persistent.
Not the loudest. Not the best-funded. The ones who kept showing up, kept building relationships, and understood that trust in this city is earned over years, not pitches.
Frontier House is where that work happens.

Such an honor to sit down with Michael W. MacKay on the "Last Week in D.C." podcast.
I've been in this industry 10 years, and I've yet to meet anyone who understands both sides of the acquisition/procurement table as well as Mike does โ FAR, OTAs, "Big R" requirements, the "color of money" behind congressional appropriations, the warfighter's perspective, and the business side of the house. I walk away from every conversation with him sharper than I went in.
Add Robert Brent Balderston to the team and what Cognitae / @FrontierHouseDC is building is truly a great equalizer: a shot for smaller, innovative companies to compete with the large primes.
We spend most of our time at @EolianVR looking forward, but every now and then its nice look back and reminisce about the journey to get here. With a lot of new faces in defense tech these days, I hope sharing some of the hard lessons โ the setbacks and screw-ups, as much as the wins โ are valuable to some of you.
Worth a listen if you're in this space. Link below.

Half the year is gone.
The threat landscape hasn't slowed down. The budget cycles haven't waited. The adversaries haven't paused.
Neither have the founders in this community.
See you in July.

Joshua Baer didn't wait for someone else to build the thing Washington was missing.
He just built it.
We're devastated by his passing. A founder to his core, and one of the most generous believers in other people's potential we've ever known.
Thinking of his family and the entire
@CapitalFactory community
Tomorrow!

Memorial Day isn't a sales holiday. It's the one day a year we stop and remember that the mission we work on โ the technology, the policy, the relationships โ exists because someone else paid for it first. With their life. Frontier House honors those who served, and those who didn't come home.
Anduril built a new weapon for the Apache attack helicopter in only 6 months.
the AH-64 launched its own drone for the first time ever. it flies 286 miles. one version hits as hard as a Hellfire missile.
defense projects used to take 20 years. now they take months.
the new industrial revolution.
You left a comfortable career to build something that matters for national security. You shouldn't have to navigate Washington alone. Frontier House is where founders who made that same bet come together.

@PalmerLuckey There's a room in Washington where defense tech founders, retired generals, investors, and policy veterans talk honestly โ off the record, no agenda. You should be in that room. Frontier House. Members only.

Washington is a city that rewards presence. Not visits. Not fly-ins. Presence. Frontier House is where defense tech founders put down roots in the capital, and build something that lasts longer than any single contract.

What's the best way to tell the future? By shaping it, of course.
Come for a great evening on 7 May for an evening Salon with Eric Lofgren. Talk about someone who has been on the forefront of all the changes happening today regarding Federal Acquisitions!
You want to talk #MOSA? Eric was part of the small group of folks who brought that conversation to Congress. You want to talk about evolving the #FAR? He's been there.
Eric has laid the groundwork to where we are going with procurement and acquisitions, and you have the chance to be there too!
