ScaleWolf

Overview

ScaleWolf is a venture capital firm and technology accelerator based in Vilnius, Lithuania, focusing on dual-use technologies that serve both commercial and defense sectors. The firm deploys capital, operational expertise, and infrastructure to scale innovations in energy, defense, and data. It collaborates with the Lithuanian Ministry of Economy and Innovation to support startups through grants, acceleration, and capital investment, particularly in sectors such as aerospace, software, and space travel. The firm's investment strategy targets technologies with clear commercial and government demand curves, aiming to strengthen frontline readiness, secure energy and digital sovereignty, and deliver predictable pathways to scale across allied markets. ScaleWolf acts as a catalyst, funding the transition from R&D to scalable deployment within NATO and allied defense ecosystems. Each investment is anchored in pre-secured offtakes or non-dilutive government contracts, reducing capital risk and shortening time to liquidity. ScaleWolf's team comprises former national-level defense leaders, deep-tech specialists, and experienced venture operators. This blend of expertise enables the firm to accelerate and invest in hardware, software, and kill-chain technologies aligned with NATO and Allied needs. The firm's approach combines grants, acceleration, and capital in a hybrid model, helping startups move from prototype to scalable market-ready solutions while working closely with innovation ecosystems across Europe to build strategic autonomy and advance mission-critical technologies.
