David Ebrahimzadeh, the New York–based founder and President of Corniche Capital, today announced the formalization of a dual-track investment strategy that combines industrial real estate acquisition and build-to-suit development with strategic investments in technology companies operating at the intersection of defense, aerospace, artificial intelligence, and national security infrastructure.
The strategy positions Corniche Capital as one of a small number of private investment firms that operate across both physical infrastructure and frontier technology — a model that David Ebrahimzadeh has developed based on the thesis that the next decade of outsized returns will be generated at the convergence of hard assets and deep technology.
“The traditional walls between real estate, private equity, and venture capital are collapsing,” said David Ebrahimzadeh. “A data center is both a real estate asset and a technology platform. A defense manufacturing facility is both an industrial property and a critical node in national security infrastructure. At Corniche Capital, we invest across both sides of that equation because the highest-conviction opportunities today sit at the intersection.”
Hard Assets: Industrial Real Estate Acquisition and Build-to-Suit Development
On the real estate side, David Ebrahimzadeh and Corniche Capital are actively acquiring industrial and commercial properties in secondary markets across the United States, targeting assets with conversion potential for logistics, advanced manufacturing, and AI data center infrastructure. The firm’s real estate thesis prioritizes properties where reshoring demand, defense procurement expansion, and AI infrastructure buildout create structural tailwinds independent of traditional commercial real estate cycles.
