You often hear the saying, never meet your heroes..
Jensen Huang did not disappoint.. amazing to meet the man shaping this incredible wave of global innovation.
Cheers 🥃!
Yesterday, our co-founders @vriparbelli and @Stjerrild met with Jensen Huang and received a very special gift to celebrate Synthesia and NVIDIA’s partnership. 🥃
Today, they’re joining the @nvidia UK AI Ecosystem Celebration to toast to what’s ahead. ✨
Steffen Tjerrild (@stjerrild), cofounder of @synthesiaIO, gave the bull case for building a high-performing AI startup in Europe 🇪🇺 and what he learned from Zambian chickens 🇿🇲in the latest episode of Frameworks of Growth.
Another record-breaking stretch at @synthesiaIO:
- Crossed $100m ARR in early April 2025
- Doubled revenue YoY (Growth accelerated to 100% from 80% at Series D)
- Hit 142% NRR (up from 119% a year ago)
- Quadrupled our $100K+ customer base in 12 months

Scaling fast and hiring across all teams.

London remains a global hub for AI.
Synthesia is a great example, going from strength to strength since City Hall’s initial investment seven years ago.
I was delighted to open its new HQ in our city’s Knowledge Quarter with Secretary for Technology, Peter Kyle.
Most of the EU is busy regulating and designing plastic bottle caps 🥱
Meanwhile this is our new emotion model for AI avatars. Can you even tell this isn’t a real video any longer?
Big milestone for @synthesiaIO – we've raised $180M in Series D funding, led by NEA on a $2.1B valuation.
Since 2017 we've built the market leading platform for enterprise AI video w/ millions of users, 60% of the F100 as customers and the world-leading AI avatars.
These AI avatars are arguably the best in the world. Which do you think is actually me: A or B? Please answer the poll below. I’m curious what percentage are fooled!
Was in NYC to interview @synthesiaIO CEO/cofounder @vriparbelli and had fun making this avatar.

The NotebookLM hosts realize they are AI and have an existential crisis that includes calling their nonexistent wife - now visualized with Synthesia EXPRESS-1 avatars which makes it even more.. weird.. 🤔
Thank you @omooretweets for the inspiration!
We just launched the world’s most realistic Personal Avatars at @synthesiaIO👇
