Aalo Atomics designs and builds factory-manufactured nuclear power plants for data centers, industry, and cities. AI infrastructure requires firm, high-density power on timelines the existing grid cannot support. The Aalo Pod delivers it as a complete modular power plant, mass-manufactured in a factory and sited directly at the load. In July 2026, the Aalo Critical Test Reactor achieved first criticality at Idaho National Laboratory as part of the U.S. Department of Energys Reactor Pilot Program. Construction of the pilot Aalo-X full-power 10 MWe power plant is underway. Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Austin, Texas, Aalo pairs nuclear scientists, engineers, and operators with builders from technology, defense, and manufacturing to eventually achieve 3Β’/kWh nuclear electricity at scale, growing from 2 people to 200 in three years with $300M+ raised and an operational factory. Energy without limits, for everyone.

Neuralink is a neurotechnology company building a generalized input/output platform for the brain. Our work has the potential to restore autonomy to those with unmet medical needs and fundamentally transform how humans interact with the world. Our core technology is an implantable brain-computer interface with ultra-thin, flexible electrode threads placed precisely by a surgical robot, enabling high-bandwidth, bidirectional interaction with neural signals. We’ve received multiple FDA Breakthrough Device designations and are conducting clinical trials around the world. Trial participants are exploring how our implant could enhance their daily lives β€” controlling digital devices like computers and smartphones, operating physical devices like robotic arms and wheelchairs, and translating thought directly into speech and text.
