 The Department of Defense is pleased to release the first investment strategy for the Office of Strategic Capital. The fiscal year 2024 investment strategy identifies initial priorities for component-level technologies that are critical to national security. This investment strategy also describes the loan-based approach that the Office will use for investments. The Office of Strategic Capital's mission to attract and scale private capital for national security will be guided by this investment strategy. It provides a roadmap of how OSC can catalyze private investment today for component-level technologies and supply chains within the critical technology areas that are insufficiently capitalized to support national security. With our partners, the Office of Strategic Capital builds on America's significant national advantages in capital markets, technology development, and commitment to market competition. The same advantages that brought us breakthroughs like semiconductors, the Internet, supercomputing, and much more, each of which continues to enable other breakthroughs today. This investment strategy focuses on today's strategic capital needs where public support is most required to attract private investment to critical component-level technologies and processes such as microelectronics assembly testing and packaging, nanomaterials and metamaterials, and synthetic biology. The Department of Defense aims to use new credit-based financial tools to crowd in private capital. These types of tools are commonly used throughout the United States government and are efficient and effective uses of public funds. We invite you to review this investment strategy and its priority industries.
