$30 billion.

That's the valuation @anduriltech just hit in their latest funding round this week.

For an 8-year-old company that's quietly been reshaping how we think about defence technology, there were signals that were converging to this moment:

- Smart diversification: They're not just building drones. Roadrunner interceptors, Copperhead underwater vehicles – they're covering air, sea, and land.
- Strategic Expansion: The $1 billion Arsenal-1 facility in Ohio? That's not just expansion. That's betting big on manufacturing scale.
- Robust Partnerships: Microsoft and Palantir partnerships give them the AI muscle. The 173% headcount growth over two years shows they're not just talking about scaling.
- Government contracts: Multi-year contracts with the U.S. Marine Corps highlight Anduril's successful market penetration and growing trust from key defense agencies.

Defence tech is having its moment. Anduril seems positioned to own a big piece of it.

Moves to survive & thrive in the ruthless food delivery market:

Giants like DoorDash (snapping up Deliveroo) and Uber (buying 85% of Turkey’s Trendyol GO) are doubling down on scale to fend off margin pressures and drive global reach.

Grubhub, previously a U.S. stalwart, was snapped up by Just Eat Takeaway, which itself became a consolidation juggernaut—acquiring Foodora, Grubhub, and more to cement a pan-regional presence.

And reach is just one part of the puzzle.

Tech, logistics, and service expansion are the others - for there’s no businesses without operational muscle and customer experience.

🔷Uber acquired the tech-forward Postmates, which invested in Serve Robotics and piloted autonomous delivery. DoorDash also partnered with Wing for drone delivery.
🔷Uber Eats is testing driverless solutions with Waymo and leading in retail partnerships with giants like Starbucks
🔷Grubhub’s digital ordering integrations with Olo and Amazon are increasing entry points and minimizing friction.

As the sector shifts from growth-at-all-costs to operational excellence and sustainability, the boldest are embracing integration and smart capital. It’s a long game to win, after all.

Check out our 2-minute spotlight on the strategic moves and milestones of Deliveroo and Doordash.

A tale of two nuclear power fundraises…and the ongoing saga of Big Tech’s energy demands.

Last week, @CFS_energy raised $1Bn+ in funding led by an undisclosed hyperscaler. The company aims to build functioning fusion reactors within the next decade - a feat unachieved by any company or state thus far.

One day later, a 2 year old startup - @TheNuclearCo - announced a $51Mn Series A round. Their goal is not new methods or breakthroughs, but to develop a fleet of reactors using existing approaches and designs, for capacity expansion in the face of data center energy demands.

Both Microsoft and Google have previously invested in Commonwealth Fusion Systems, and Google has partnered with The Nuclear Company to build large reactor sites.

Clearly, a potential energy crisis is looming over the tech industry, whose very foundation now sits on massive, power-hungry compute capabilities and offerings.

The wave of investments and partnerships - for hyperscalers to put a stake in alternative energy sources, innovations, and projects - is just beginning.

Here’s a 2-minute spotlight on these two companies - with completely unique approaches, technologies, and business models - addressing a singular goal for a common customer base.

A “charged” investment landscape includes the likes of @khoslaventures, Time Ventures, @starbridgevc, Quiet Capital, @StarlightVC_ , @fp_coalition, Schooner Capital, @Temasek Holdings, Tiger Global Management, @Equinor, @EmCollective, @lowercarbon, @EclipseVentures, @trueventures, Goldcrest Capital, @inevitablemcj, @WonderVentures

Retired electric vehicle batteries are living a second life in the global energy shift – and they're on track to a $32 billion market.

🔋EV batteries still retain 70-80% of their capacity when they're retired from use. Power grids and renewable energy projects around the world are struggling with effective energy storage, and second-life EV batteries offer the perfect solution!

Second-life EV batteries provide affordable, sustainable solutions for grid balancing, solar energy storage, and more. Here’s why it matters:

- 30-70% lower cost makes them an affordable choice for utilities and businesses.
- AI diagnostics and improved thermal management ensure reliability and safety.
- Regulations and incentives in the U.S. and EU are accelerating adoption.

Big Players Are Betting On It: Auto giants like @NissanMotor and @JLR_News are already heavily investing in second-life battery projects, and funding for firms specializing in battery repurposing is rapidly increasing. 📈

Key Market Moves:
- @northvolt raised US$5B in Europe’s largest-ever green loan to expand its battery production.
- @RedwoodMat secured US$1B in Series D funding, backed by investors like Goldman Sachs and Caterpillar.
- @AscendElements raised US$542M to focus on sustainable battery materials.
- @moment_energy raised US$15M for its “second-life gigafactory” from the Amazon Climate Pledge Fund.

As more EVs hit the road and batteries retire, repurposing these at scale will no longer be optional—it will be the only way to keep them out of landfills while effectively addressing the energy storage crisis.

This isn’t just about sustainability—it’s a commercial opportunity being shaped by industry leaders, regulators, and investors, including Capricorn Investment Group, Goldman Sachs Asset Management, @CaterpillarInc, Decarbonization Partners, @Temasek , Cactus Partners, Nordic Alpha Partners, Green European Tech Fund, Climate Pledge Fund, @VoyagerVC, Family Ventures, A&G Energy Transition Tech Fund, PT1 – PropTech1 Ventures.

Another week, another eye-popping👀(or eye-rolling, depending on where you stand) valuation for AI-powered coding startups.

While OpenAI was sealing the $3B acquisition deal for Windsurf , another mega fundraise of $900M was announced by Anysphere (the maker of Cursor) at a reported valuation of $9B.

Tools and startups abound, and the pace of dealmaking has been unstoppable in the last few months, - amidst diverse sentiments about the future of ‘vibe-coding’.👁‍🗨

- Poolside AI recently raised a staggering $500 million in a Series B round, putting its valuation at $3 billion.

- Magic AI, raised $320 million, attracting attention from giants like Eric Schmidt and Atlassian.

- @tessl_io ($100M Series A), @cognition_labs ($175M Series A), @Modular ($100M Series B), @augmentcode ($227M Series B), @Builderai ($250M Series D), the list goes on…

And it's not just startups feeling the love. Big Tech players are keenly aware of the potential here. Microsoft has already integrated AI tools into platforms like GitHub Copilot, creating a seamless experience for developers. Meanwhile, Google has teamed up with Magic AI to build next-gen supercomputers on GCP.

We thought it’s time for a quick refresher of the landscape and map the rising players that could be next in line of explosive valuations.🎯

Notable investors include @a16z, @SoftBank, @BainCapVC, Adams Street Partners, @BAMelevate , Epiq Capital, @foundersfund, @generalcatalyst , Greenoaks, @ThriveCapital

Inception to Exit in under 3 Years - this startup’s acquisition by Palo Alto Networks underscores the market forces converging around AI security.

@ProtectAICorp demonstrated a combination of cutting-edge technology, strategic alliances, and aggressive product innovation that placed it on the radar of one of cybersecurity’s biggest players.

Here’s why it made sense for @PaloAltoNtwks to move so decisively:

⏱️The timing couldn’t be better. ML and Gen AI have gone mainstream enterprise, surfacing the limitations of traditional security solutions in protecting ML models, large language models and AI pipelines.

🧰Their ecosystem and rapid inorganic expansion of solutions signals the flexibility and synergy potential of embedding into Palo Alto’s own AI security portfolio. Addition of the likes of Huntr, SydeLabs and Laiyer AI essentially made them a one-stop shop.

🫰They racked up $108.5M in funding in under 2 years, including a $60M Series B, from well-known VCs and big corporate names. The capital infusion demonstrated outcomes on all fronts — product, talent, and GTM — and a clear path to scale further.

🤝 Lastly, tech deals are often as much about the people as the product. For Palo Alto Networks, Protect AI’s leadership experience across big tech, and successful startup exits meant a specialized and proven team on board to lead the next-generation AI security innovation.

Key investors who saw the potential include @EvolutionEquity, @SamsungVentures, @SalesforceVC, @AcrewCapital, @Boldstartvc, @Pelion_VP, @avisoventures, @stepstonegroup
