Riphean Investments is a venture capital firm based in the VA-DC corridor. By using a venture studio approach, we can create and accelerate the growth of businesses focused on the National Security Markets. By making early and later-stage investments, we align the goals shared by our partners and investors. We’re led by Founder and Partner Joel Griffin, Partner Brian DeMuth, and Operating Partner Mike Lyons. Unlike other VC firms, we are an organization guided by founders and operators, our experience in successful exits is our force multiplier. Through our venture studio approach, we accelerate the growth of businesses that have powerful potential. Not only do we provide capital resources, but we also facilitate shared services across our portfolio to handle financial, business administration, and go-to-market strategies.
