About Mark A. Maloney

Mark A. Maloney is the Co-Founder and Managing Director (also cited as Managing Partner) of Paladin Capital Group, a Washington, D.C.-based venture firm he established in 2001 alongside Michael Steed after spending over 18 years in executive financial services roles at Ullico. His investment thesis targets seed and Series A rounds for companies building cybersecurity, digital infrastructure resilience, and dual-use technologies serving both commercial and government markets. The firm typically deploys initial checks between $50,000 and $5 million, with Maloney co-leading investment committee decisions on these deals. Notable portfolio companies include Constructive Bio, which received a $58 million Series A from the firm, and Aralez Bio, which secured a $12 million Series A round. Paladin’s distinctive point of view stems from its founding in direct response to the 9/11 attacks, leveraging founders’ backgrounds from national security agencies like the NSA and CIA to bridge government and commercial technology needs. Maloney currently serves as a board member at FPMI Solutions, Inc. and as a Director at the Mid-Atlantic Venture Association.
