Drone.VC Syndicate: This is a domain-specific syndicate built to discover and invest in prototype-phase companies working with drones. Investments are intended to be the first money in to these companies, often as early as time of incorporation. Applications are expected to cover a very wide range of geographies and industries, including farming,
oil and gas, real estate, retail/delivery, and security/surveillance. They do not plan on investing in military-focused applications or weaponized platforms.
