Q3 brought big moments across the Blumberg Capital portfolio: a $2.6B acquisition, $950M in announced funding, and continued momentum across AI, healthcare, fintech, and commerce.
For founders, the takeaway is clear: build infrastructure that can scale with the opportunity.
Manufacturers have historically faced a quality-control tradeoff: inspect more and add time and specialized labor, or inspect selectively and risk defects. AI is beginning to change that equation.
@overview_ai launched OV Spark, bringing agentic AI directly to the factory floor.
The wait is finally over. Here comes a new era of inspection.
Meet OV Spark, the camera that practically builds inspections for you, walking you through every step and checking in with you before it acts.

What does the founder mindset look like in the age of AI?
@davidblumberg joined the @EconClubofMiami to discuss entrepreneurship, agentic AI, & leadership.
A key takeaway: as AI does more of the work, human judgment, curiosity, and the ability to adapt become more valuable.
We officially kicked off the Economic Club of Miamiโs fall season on September 22 with a fantastic evening in partnership with SEIA Miami at their beautiful private club in Brickell.
Our members and guests heard from David Blumberg, Founder & Managing Partner of Blumberg Capital, in a fireside chat with Brent Vosters, Partner at Benesch Investment Group and a member of the Economic Club of Miami Advisory Board.
Their conversation explored โThe Founder Mindset for the Age of AIโโ from the qualities that have always distinguished successful founders to how entrepreneurs and business leaders must think, adapt, and lead in a rapidly changing world shaped by artificial intelligence.
Thank you to David, Brent, our partners at SEIA Miami, and everyone who joined us for an incredible start to our fall season.
๐ฅ Full video of the conversation coming soon.
