United by purpose

At Ilavska Vuillermoz Capital, our commitment to defence technology runs deep - we’ve been investing in the field since 2019, long before it became a mainstream focus. For us, it’s about strengthening Europe’s resilience, supporting those who protect it, and backing the innovators shaping its future.

Our team brings together people who have built companies, advised governments, and led investments across multiple industries. We come from venture capital, strategy consulting, engineering, and entrepreneurship, and we share a common drive to turn bold ideas into lasting impact.

We work closely with a network of trusted advisors from European armed forces and international security institutions, whose experience offers a real-world perspective on what modern defence and security actually need. Their insights help us understand how technology, policy, and mission readiness intersect — and where innovation truly matters.

Quietly building bold ideas with lasting impact

We back founders who see the world differently - those who tackle hard problems with courage and creativity. Our portfolio includes teams quietly building the technologies and systems that make societies safer, more resilient, and better prepared for the challenges ahead.

Aerobotics7 builds an autonomous drone-based platform using AI and advanced sensors to detect, map, and neutralize hidden threats such as landmines, IEDs, and unexploded ordnance, ensuring safer environments in conflict and post-conflict zones.

Ametrine Technologies designs and manufactures advanced multispectral camouflage and stealth solutions that reduce the visual and thermal signatures of military vehicles, equipment, and personnel.

Our goal is to create a thriving environment where innovation and progress can flourish. We recognize the importance of staying up-to-date with our industry's latest trends and advancements.
