ONE9 Welcomes Davin Michaelis as Senior Technical & Tactical Advisor
Throughout Michaelis’ twenty-one deployments, he distinguished himself at the highest level of strategic military operations including leadership roles in three presidentially approved operations. Known for his exceptional leadership, strategic acumen, and operational excellence he has demonstrated his prowess in some of the most challenging environments and operations globally. His deep and extensive experience in national security, intelligence, and special operations sets him apart as a leader of the highest pedigree.
In his new role at ONE9, Michaelis will be based in Warsaw, Poland. He will provide a unique and invaluable lens to target, validate, and provide deep tactical and technical diligence to help guide ONE9’s investment and innovation priorities. His strategic vision and tactical expertise will be instrumental in advancing ONE9’s initiatives and ensuring the highest standards of performance and innovation.
“I’ve been tracking ONE9 for a while now, and am proud to join a firm who contributes as much to national security in their private sector capability as we did when we were in uniform,” Michalis said.
“Davin is no joke, and I am deeply humbled to have gained the trust of a leader with Davin’s character, curiosity and mission focus,” said Glenn Cowan, Founder and Managing Partner of ONE9. “As ONE9 expands our presence globally, it is critical to align with our most important allies”. Cowan went on to say, “At ONE9 we equate venture capital to a special operations mission and since our former Units fought together, it’s a natural fit to expand our shared vision and culture to build one of the most impactful investment and innovation firms focused on national security.” His unparalleled experience and leadership will be a tremendous asset as we continue to drive forward our mission and expand our capabilities.”
