David Ebrahimzadeh on why industrial real estate is becoming mission-critical infrastructure for U.S. defense, defense technology, and domestic manufacturing growth.<\/h5>\n

NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — David Ebrahimzadeh<\/u><\/a>, entrepreneur and investor, is positioning industrial real estate as a critical backbone of America\u2019s rapidly expanding defense and defense technology ecosystem, as federal policy, reshoring initiatives, and national security priorities accelerate under the current U.S. administration.<\/p>\n

According to the U.S. Department of Defense, national defense spending surpassed $880 billion in fiscal year 2024, with sustained growth projected across aerospace, advanced manufacturing, logistics, autonomous systems, and defense technology. At the same time, McKinsey & Company estimates that reshoring and supply-chain realignment could drive more than $500 billion in new U.S. manufacturing investment by the end of the decade\u2014significantly increasing demand for secure, modern industrial facilities.<\/p>\n

Ebrahimzadeh, Founder of Corniche Capital, believes this convergence marks a structural shift in how industrial real estate is valued. \u201cDefense and defense tech no longer operate only in research labs or coastal innovation hubs,\u201d said Ebrahimzadeh. \u201cThey require scalable, secure industrial infrastructure, long-term site control, and a workforce aligned with national priorities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Industrial Real Estate as Mission-Critical Infrastructure<\/strong>
As federal procurement expands and defense contractors accelerate domestic production, demand is rising for industrial assets capable of supporting sensitive operations, advanced manufacturing, testing, and logistics. Industry research from CBRE and JLL indicates that defense-aligned industrial properties are outperforming traditional industrial assets due to longer lease terms, higher tenant stickiness, and policy-backed demand visibility.<\/p>\n

Industrial real estate has increasingly become embedded within the national security framework, serving as the physical platform through which defense innovation is manufactured, deployed, and sustained.<\/p>\n

New Mexico: A Strategic Advantage for Defense and Industry<\/strong>
Corniche Capital has identified New Mexico as a particularly compelling market within this national strategy. The state offers proximity to national laboratories, military installations, aerospace testing corridors, and defense research institutions. In addition, New Mexico provides competitive tax incentives, workforce training programs, and economic development grants designed to attract advanced manufacturing and defense-related operations.<\/p>\n

According to the New Mexico Economic Development Department, the state consistently ranks among the most cost-effective labor markets in the western United States, while maintaining a technically skilled workforce experienced in engineering, manufacturing, and applied sciences.<\/p>\n

Corniche Capital\u2019s Nationwide Investment Strategy<\/strong>
Corniche Capital operates with a nationwide mandate, structuring industrial real estate investments that support long-term tenants in defense, infrastructure, and advanced technology. The firm emphasizes durability, operational relevance, and alignment with federal and state policy objectives\u2014rather than short-term market cycles.<\/p>\n

As defense and defense technology remain top federal priorities, Ebrahimzadeh believes industrial real estate will continue to attract institutional capital as both a defensive asset class and a platform for long-term growth.<\/p>\n
