CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--McNally Capital announced today an investment in Altamira Technologies (Altamira), a market leader in delivering innovative, mission-focused analytics and engineering solutions to the U.S. national security community. Altamira was formed to address the growing gap in mid-sized innovators that possess the ability to scale as well as the agility to adapt to a rapidly changing threat environment and technology landscape.

McNally Capital invested in the transaction alongside ClearSky, a venture capital/growth equity firm, and Nio Advisors, LLC.
In connection with the transaction, Ward McNally, Managing Partner at McNally Capital, will be joining Altamira’s board of directors. “We are excited to partner with Altamira, ClearSky and Nio Advisors on this transaction, which is in line with our commitment to partner with best-in-class management teams and investors,” said Ward McNally. “One of our primary investment theses focuses on the intelligence and defense communities, and we are excited to have completed this platform investment."
“We are very excited by the opportunity that this new partnership will provide to continue to drive strong organic growth, invest in innovative new solutions, as well as for strategic acquisitions,” said Altamira CEO, Ted Davies. “We have carefully constructed a unique platform built to scale and support core national defense and intelligence missions and are enthused that our investors share our vision for the future.”
