We invest in technologies critical to the national interest.
The Overture Edge
Government is a growth lever.
Most VCs don't know how to pull it.
Overture is an investment bridge between the world of startups and governments. We invest in energy, artificial intelligence, resilience, and industrial transformation startups and focus on helping those founders win government support and navigate regulatory complexity.
Industrial policies are here to stay. Government and geopolitics is today as important as economics. Each Overture portfolio company receives in-kind support from three leading government affairs firms to unlock the full potential of federal, state, and municipal governments.
We have worked as senior political appointees in the U.S. Department of Energy and in the White House. We have since founded a top tier government affairs firm, Boundary Stone Partners, and have helped build government affairs practices at companies like Airbnb.
We have previously deployed over $670M and have invested in some of the fastest growing startups in venture.
We have personally founded technology startups with over $1.5 billion in cumulative exits.

What it means to have
Overture in your corner
Overture has been incredibly valuable, not only as an investor, but as an advisor and partner. As a leader in zero-carbon heat and power, Antora is working to decarbonize industry and the electric grid. The Overture team has accelerated our business, helping solve government and regulatory challenges, identify and access capital, and unlock commercial value along the way.
Overture was Bedrock's very first check in the door, and their specialized insights and network are unparalleled in this era of serious government tailwinds for clean-tech. The Overture team and their Boundary Stone partners occupy a distinct place on our cap table compared to our conventional tech venture investors.
Overture is the highest value investor we've ever worked with. They have jumped in, accelerated, and supercharged the technical side of our hardware, they provide unparalleled deep government and regulatory expertise, and pushed and enabled our marketing and press strategy. Every other investor we've spoken with recognizes Overture as a true Tier 1 VC.
Overture has been the most supportive venture team I've had the pleasure of working with over my 40+ years of startup experience across 5 startups. Their public sector relationships have been invaluable and their unique partnership with Boundary Stone has helped us navigate the complexity of the rapidly changing environment.
