We build robots to maintain AI data centers. Just about everything else in a data center is software-controlled,but when a part fails, someone still has to work directly on the rack. With the new generation of AI data centers moving to 800V DC in the rack, that becomes a question of safety, and we think robots are the answer. We focus specifically on dexterous manipulation problems rather than heavy lifting: cleaning and replacing optics, reconnecting copper cabling, and re-seating drives precisely.

Fusionality builds integrated measurement, control, and data systems for fusion devices. Fusion is accelerating. Over 60 private companies, propelled by 10B$ of private investment over the last 5 years, are pushing toward net energy and commercial power. Every one of them needs robust diagnostics, real-time control, and scalable data infrastructure — and too few people in the world know how to build these systems well. We do. Our team brings decades of hands-on experience operating and controlling fusion plasmas, including work on TCV and other tokamaks, combined with deep expertise in control theory, whole-device simulation, data engineering, AI/ML, and real-time software-hardware integration. Based in Lausanne, Switzerland, spinning out from the Swiss Plasma Center at EPFL, Fusionality works alongside fusion teams to deliver the operations capabilities they need — so their engineers can focus on building and running the device. Built by fusion experts, for fusion experts. info@fusionality.com · fusionality.com

We develop computational imaging techonology for semiconductor inspection and metrology applications.

Our team is building a sustainable future for humanity in which nature and our technologically advanced and equitable society thrive in unison. To enable that future, we are decarbonizing the global transportation sector. Alteva is using technology developed at the German Aerospace Center, to develop and commercialize ultralight batteries made from abundant and sustainable raw materials. Our batteries are significantly lighter, safer, and cheaper than what is currently being used for electric vehicles. Therefore, for the first time, we can offer energy storage solutions for electrified airplanes, heavy-duty trucks, construction and mining applications, and agricultural vehicles. We are targeting markets that, together, represent about 8 - 10 Gt of annual greenhouse gas emissions.

Matnex is on a mission to discover new materials that significantly reduce the environmental, economical, and social cost of items critical to our society. Our ground-breaking AI software transforms the way new materials are discovered and designed. Using rapid automated processes and advanced quantum calculations, we work with partners to reduce global CO2e emissions and accelerate the discovery of next-gen materials from decades to months.
