New Vista Capital is a Washington, DC-based venture firm founded in 2020 at the intersection of national defense, commercial aerospace, and private capital. Co-founded by Dennis Muilenburg (former Boeing Chairman and CEO), Kirsten Bartok Touw (Managing Partner), and Gen. Stephen "Seve" Wilson (ret. USAF), the firm targets early-stage companies in four focus areas: AI & autonomy, space, reindustrialization (advanced manufacturing), and defense. As of late 2025, New Vista was actively raising Fund I with a $60M target, drawing LPs primarily from industry executives, retired generals, and family offices. The firm pairs capital with an extensive advisor network of retired senior military officers, former defense policy officials, and aerospace industry veterans to help portfolio companies navigate DoD procurement and government contracting. Select portfolio companies include Castelion (hypersonics), HawkEye 360 (space-based RF), Starcloud (space data centers), and Advanced Manufacturing Company of America.
