Peace Tech and Venture Capital: Can Innovation Help Reduce Global Conflict?

Can venture capital play a role in preventing conflict – not just responding to it? In this episode, we speak with Brian Abrams, Founder & Managing Partner of B Ventures Group, a pioneering VC fund focused on peace tech – technologies designed to prevent, mitigate, or resolve violent conflict while delivering strong commercial returns.

Brian shares how his early experience investing in Israel’s cybersecurity ecosystem led him to a broader insight: that technology can be a tool for stability and cooperation, not only defence. From AI-driven geopolitical risk simulations to cultural intelligence platforms that help de-escalate tensions and support cross-border M&A, peace tech represents a proactive approach to global security.

The conversation explores how peace tech differs from traditional defence technology, why it could become a category comparable in scale to space tech, and how B Ventures is building a first-of-its-kind ecosystem bringing together founders, LPs, and mission-aligned investors. Far from “peace-washing,” the focus is on proving that peace-driven innovation can generate top-tier venture returns while addressing one of the world’s most pressing global challenges.
