PROTEGO VENTURES DEFENSE TECH SERIES: Fireside Chat with Josh Wolfe, Lux Capital

​You're invited to Protego Ventures' Defense Tech Series.

​Join us for an exclusive fireside chat with Josh Wolfe, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Lux Capital, in conversation with Lital Leshem, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Protego Ventures.

​Lux Capital is one of the top US venture funds investing in defense and frontier technologies. Josh was an early backer of Anduril, investing in their Series A in 2017, and built a close relationship with founder Palmer Luckey from the start. He’ll share how that experience shaped his approach to backing bold, dual-use technologies at the intersection of deep tech and national security.

​Known for his contrarian thinking and intellectual rigor, Josh’s insights on defense innovation and geopolitics have been featured in The Economist, WSJ, and podcasts like Invest Like the Best. Lux recently invested in Israeli defense startup Kela, helping shape the global conversation around the future of defense tech.

​In this fireside chat, we’ll explore:

​How top-tier U.S. funds are approaching the defense tech resurgence

​Why Israel is emerging as a strategic node in this global shift

​What Lux looks for when investing in category-defining founders
