Ever Heard of In-Q-Tel?

Well, they're looking for a new CEO. From TechWeb News:

Yoran, CIA's Venture Capital Chief, Resigns

The head of the Central Intelligence Agency's venture capital arm, Amit Yoran, has resigned his position after less than four months in the position as chief executive of In-Q-Tel.

In a report in the Washington Post Monday, Yoran said he resigned for personal reasons that included a wish to spend more time with him family. "It's a very amicable parting" said Yoran. "I will say I'm sorry and disappointed as well."

With a budget of some $50 million annually, In-Q-Tel invests in emerging technologies that the CIA believes have future use.

In a statement Lee A. Ault, III, In-Q-Tel's trustees board chairman, said: "We look forward to continuing In-Q-Tel's unique and important mission of delivering important and cutting edge technologies to the CIA and the intelligence community." Yoran previously served as head of cybersecurity at the Department of Homeland Security.
