We are honored to lead @Mach_Industries $300M Series C alongside @RibbitCapital with participation from @khoslaventures, @bedrock, @sequoia, @winklevosscap, and @1517.
Mach is built strategically for the new era of modern defense. A vertically integrated, autonomy-defined defense manufacturer designed to produce, iterate, and deploy low cost autonomous systems at scale.
As global security demands shift from high-cost platforms to mass-producible systems, Mach is inflecting into technical maturity and production scale at a critical moment.
Our time on the ground with @ethanrthornton and the Mach team proved their dedication and talent. Their mission to defend free societies is based on core values, and has driven exceptional breakthroughs.
Proud to be leading their Series C at @InfiniteXYZ
We are excited to lead @Mach_Industries $300m Series C
Mach is building systems designed for real-world deployment, leading the next era of American defense.
Deeply thankful to everyone who helped make this milestone possible, and to @InfiniteXYZ and @RibbitCapital for their partnership.
Excited for what comes next.
The most important industries all come back to one core thing: materials science discovery.
And the experimental data needed to move them forward is immensely hard to capture. With AI, new possibilities emerge.
Congrats to @MarkGroden and the @skyryse team on their $300m Series C. Itโs been an incredible journey as long-term investors and supporters. Skyryse has continued to set the precedent for a new era of flight, and weโre excited to see them execute on the vision of human driven autonomous flight.
Status: Unicorn. ๐ฆ
Today weโre announcing our $300M+ Series C raise, accelerating our path to certification and scaling our universal operating system for flight across helicopters and airplanes. This round was led by Autopilot Ventures (@HQAutopilot) and returning investor Fidelity Management & Research Company, with participation from new and returning investors ArrowMark Partners, Atreides Management LP (@Atreidesmgmt), @BAMelevate, @BaronCapital Group, Inc., Durable Capital Partners, Positive Sum, Qatar Investment Authority (QIA), RCM Private Markets Fund managed by Rokos Capital Management (US) LP, Woodline Partners, among others.
Surpassing $1B in valuation as a privately-held company, is a big milestone for us and a history-making moment for the industry. To date, weโre the only aviation technology company to reach this milestone while maintaining our independence and offering a technology for dual-use in defense and civilian markets. Weโre especially proud of what this capital unlocks for safe, simple flight for everyone.

We're are excited to be a partner sponsor of @DeepTechNY, a new initiative from @alley_corp bringing together 300 of the world's top founders, researchers, innovators, and investors.
Three of Infinite's portfolio founders will be key event speakers, @josephfkrause, @GillVerd, and @isaiah_p_taylor on Wednesday, 1/28
We are excited to be supporting @MytraUS in their $120M Series C round.
The future of warehouse automation is clear in Mytra's robotic systems. Their operational bots are a glimpse into the AI-driven future for warehousing and materials flow.
Today, Radical AI participated in the White House's Genesis Mission Industry Roundtable, and we signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the DOEย to advance AI-driven materials discovery in support of the historic national effort ahead.
History is defined by the materials we master. But the materials of the past cannot build the future. Radical AI is building scientific intelligence to autonomously discover and manufacture next-generation materials to solve the world's greatest challenges.
For over a century, material breakthroughs have defined industrial leadership, with America at the forefront. Companies like U.S Steel, Alcoa, and 3M have anchored U.S. strength in the chemical and advanced materials sectors.
@radicalai is continuing this legacy in materials advancement and shaping the future of America's continued dominance.
Today, Valar Atomics became the first startup in history to split the atom.
Announcing Project Nova, a series of zero power critical tests on Valar Atomics' Nova Core in collaboration with Los Alamos NCERC and NNSS.
Nova went critical for the first time this morning at 11:45am.
Today we're announcing Valar Atomics' $130m Series A, led by Doug Philippone at Snowpoint Ventures and co-lead by Day One and Dream.
Also joining Team Valar are Balerion, Contrary, DTX, Alumni, Crosscut, Triplepoint, Palmer Luckey, Shyam Sankar, and more great funds and angels.
