Direct answers about what NuvoNexus is, which companies it operates, where it is based, and how to reach the team.
NuvoNexus, LLC is a privately held, U.S.-domiciled deep-tech holding company. It builds, owns, and operates deep-tech businesses serving U.S. defense and industrial customers, from controlled material systems to allied defense-technology transition.
MacroVation, LLC (defense materials R&D and prototype systems, with four funded programs across USMC, NAVSEA, and ONR); Helicon Defense (allied defense-technology transition, a NuvoNexus d/b/a); and Phoenix Asset Recovery (industrial equipment recovery and resale, Radford, Virginia). MNEOS is the platform's computational-engineering and institutional-intelligence initiative. David Sherrer also advises Phase Shift Ventures, a deep-tech venture fund focused on the Florida Space Coast.
Headquarters in Cocoa Beach, Florida, with an operating center in Fairlawn, Virginia.
The operating model is grounded in two companies built and transitioned to strategic acquirers: Haleos (founded 1996 as ACT MicroDevices; technology and team transferred to Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials in 2002) and Nuvotronics (founded 2008; acquired by Cubic Corporation in March 2019). The leadership team holds 125+ patents.
NuvoNexus builds operating companies, funds their early execution, and stays in the work long enough to make sure the transition from funded R&D to fieldable product actually happens. Each operating company keeps its own technical leadership, customer base, and contracting infrastructure; NuvoNexus provides capital allocation, executive oversight, and operating discipline.
