What a day for the first-ever @DeepTechNY Summit!
With 400+ attendees and 20+ speakers, one thing was abundantly clear: 𝗡𝗲𝘄 𝗬𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗶𝘀 𝗮 𝗽𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗵𝗼𝘂𝘀𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝘁𝗲𝗰𝗵 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻.
A huge thank you to our visionary presenters, founders, investors,
Bureaucracy has already throttled space exploration, and this article proposes creating a UN-affiliated 'Planetary Stewardship Council'? As a species, there are few things we actually agree upon here on Earth, so how could this possibly advance progress in space?
No. The authors
A New Golden Age of American Science is possible.
We must prioritize the American Scientist, revive the national pursuit of ambitious scientific missions, and fully harness AI to accelerate scientific discovery.

Internet friends: I need @friedberg to join me @DeepTechNY 2027 @Newlab Brookyln
David has been deep tech'ing before we called it deep tech, he has been anti-socialism'ing before anyone knew this was an issue, and is generally out ahead on robots, nuclear, energy, ip, copyright, ai, etc
This is what I do at AlleyCorp, and what we talk about at DTNY - with all the right folks in the room
David is the right voice and I want to make some magic happen 🦾

RAI-939 outperformed industry-leading aerospace material C103 by 125x.
In a head-to-head torch test, Purdue Applied Research Institute confirmed that Radical AI’s RAI-939 sample exhibited superior environmental survivability to C103.
C103 has been in use since the Apollo
Exciting moment to share our investment with @AvatarRobots with the world
@thecolinwebb and the team are doing one of a kind work *actually scaling* robots today, with teleops and AI systems that work *today*
We backed them before deployment, now they are approaching 1M items - awesome to see compounding things compound
There are a ton of hard problems to solve when your goal is scale and real benefit to real *customers* today. Very different from pilots or trials - real robots doing real things with real margins and real payback
Congrats Colin - let's go! 🤖 📈
So proud to announce that Avatar Robotics has raised $6.5M in Seed Funding, led by AlleyCorp, along with a preseed led by defy.vc.
Warehousers around the country are wondering how they’re going to find the help they need to meet this year’s holiday volume.

Robotics companies show great lab demos, but never solve the problems it takes to deploy to real facilities, where work is constantly changing.
Avatar bridges that gap. In under a year, we went from an idea in my living room, to robots that have packed, sorted, and shipped over 900,000 products to consumers nationwide.
With the funding, we’ll be bringing more robots to more facilities, accelerating our path to autonomy, and scaling our growing team of operators and engineers within the Avatar family.
Tremendous thanks to our early customers who welcomed us into their work and challenges, our amazing team who ships solutions at the speed of light, along with our investors Headline, Henry Ford III, Refashiond, Paul Vogel, Jack Huffard, Samuel Udotong, and more.
This has been the most exciting thing I’ve ever worked on, and it’s only the beginning.
As a kid obsessed with physics I dreamed of a nuclear future
But since the 1980s the regulatory environment made this impossible
Also, as America outsourced its industrial base to China, our demand for power was stagnant
Now there's a double why now: the AI build out +
As a kid obsessed with physics I dreamed of a nuclear future
But since the 1980s the regulatory environment made this impossible
Also, as America outsourced its industrial base to China, our demand for power was stagnant
Now there's a double why now: the AI build out + reshoring of manufacturing has made America hungry for power again
Also, nuclear has become a bipartistan issue and the regulatory framework is rapidly improving
Enter @isaiah_p_taylor with @valaratomics
He is applying the Elon playbook to nuclear
Find an industry that America used to be good at, but lost its way on: rockets, tunneling, manufacturing cars
And then go build a simple unit, you can deliver quickly, to get on the exponential ramp in terms of real world feedback + early revenue + technological progress
Then claw your way back to the prior state of the art, before pushing far beyond our prior limits
I believe Isaiah is a generational founder and this is a generational company
@sequoia is ecstatic to partner with him and the Valar team
(Especially when we get to do it with our friends at Valar, Conviction, Atreides, and the early investors here)
And massive thank you to @PalmerLuckey for giving me a tip regarding how special this company is
Announcing Valar Atomics' $1B series B led by Sequoia, with Valor Equity Partners, Atreides, Point72, Conviction, and others.
Alongside the $1B equity, we have closed a $200m credit facility led by Erebor and JPM.
I'm excited to welcome Shaun Maguire from Sequoia to our board.
Congratulations to Isaiah, Shaun, Valar & Sequoia!
Always fun to celebrate another AlleyCorp <> Sequoia crossover - here's to all the opportunities ahead 🦄
Time to Make The World's Energy! 🏭📈

Watching now - love it!
This has been in the works for a while, an open secret for a few weeks, and is officially hot off the press today!
Let's go - congrats to @shaunmmaguire and @isaiah_p_taylor
Valar Atomics + Sequoia == huge win for all! 🏭📈
