About Dovetail



Our firm was created from the concerted efforts of a diverse team of professionals through the FEDTECH program. The program is a venture firm incubator at the intersection of entrepreneurship, breakthrough technologies, and mission-driven organizations, with a focus on dual-use technologies.

Dovetail honors the FEDTECH legacy through its commitment in unlocking multi-faceted technology, all of which is made possible through our relationships and collaboration that spans across the DoD, NASA, DoE, NIST, VA, federal labs, research institutions, universities and corporations.
