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

Duodata gives AI a governed understanding of how your business works. The foundation is a Metrics Ontology: a connected model of the KPIs, drivers, and relationships that define business performance. It gives every KPI its full business context—what it means, why it matters, how it is calculated, what drives it, where its data comes from, how it can be analyzed, and who approves it. With that context, AI can do more than retrieve data or calculate a number. It can reason about business performance, explain why a KPI changed, answer questions using the correct business meaning, and recommend which levers could improve the outcome. Duodata governs this context centrally and keeps it aligned everywhere metrics are used across the company—from board reports, dashboards, and spreadsheets to semantic layers, data platforms, BI tools, and AI agents. Each system works from the same approved definitions and relationships, creating a consistent understanding of how the business is performing and what drives its results. The result is AI—and an organization—that understands the business and takes the right action to improve it.

The biggest challenges of our lifetime, from climate change modeling to drug discovery, constantly require more computing power. For decades, chipmakers relied on making transistors in integrated circuits smaller, and packing more of them together, to achieve more powerful and efficient chips. However, all power that goes into these billions of transistors is turned into heat. This heat needs to be extracted, as overheating causes chips to fail and lose performance. With transistors approaching the size of a few atoms, extracting this highly concentrated heat is rapidly becoming a bottleneck for the next generations of computing. In addition, cooling of chips accounts for about 30% of electricity consumption in data centers, causing an enormous environmental footprint. Sustainable and high-performance heat extraction is key to satisfy our ever-increasing demand for computational power. We are a provider of breakthrough semiconductor cooling solutions. Our solution utilizes a network of microscopically small cooling channels embedded inside the chip, which enables us to extract 10 times more heat compared to the current leading market alternatives, and extract this heat over 50x more energy efficiently. This enables the powerful integrated circuits of the future to break thermal limitations in a sustainable manner.
