Mr. David Porzio is the Managing Partner of Danu Capital Partners.
Danu Capital Partners provides scalable, capital-efficient growth solutions for infrastructure and security-focused companies. As demand for resilient infrastructure and security solutions grows, companies in energy, materials science, cybersecurity, and advanced infrastructure require capital strategies beyond traditional venture funding. While equity financing drives early-stage innovation, many businesses can scale more efficiently through non-dilutive and structured capital solutions.
Our capital markets and structured finance platform provides tailored capital formation services, helping portfolio companies and sector-aligned ventures secure growth capital while preserving equity. Our focus areas include infrastructure (data canters, energy, cyber, water), real estate, aviation, aerospace and defence.
