Political Momentum and Private Sector Support
Voyager’s IPO comes at a time of renewed interest in defense modernization. During his second inaugural address, President Donald Trump committed to expanding American space ambitions, saying the U.S. would “plant the Stars and Stripes on the planet Mars.” Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth echoed support for integrating tech into modern warfare.
Private capital is following suit. Notable defense investors, including Industrious Ventures, Scout Ventures, and Marlinspike, have backed Voyager, while the Department of Defense has launched funding initiatives aimed at startups born out of U.S. universities.
