The next frontier of AI isn't just about choosing the right model. It's about building moats through implementation. Across the Emergence Capital portfolio, companies like Bland and Federato are scaling faster by embedding Forward-Deployed Engineers. These engineers bridge the gap between AI and reality, ensuring real results in production.

Snowcap Compute Inc. is rethinking compute architecture from the ground up and tackling one of the hardest challenges in AI infrastructure: How to dramatically improve performance and efficiency as workloads scale. By advancing superconducting technology from the lab into real-world systems, they’re pursuing a true step-function innovation in how compute is built. Through Playground Global, I’ve had the privilege of backing teams redesigning foundational systems. Snowcap reflects that mindset: disciplined hardware engineering, deep technical rigor and the experience to challenge long-held assumptions in computing. The AI and Quantum eras will demand breakthroughs across silicon, systems, software, and energy. Increasingly, that future will be a cryogenic temperatures. Snowcap is making it really cool to be really cold! https://lnkd.in/gu35jNh8

Santa Clara-based Upscale AI has launched with over $100 million in seed funding to build an open-standard AI networking platform. Upscale AI is a networking company creating hardware and software solutions to make AI more accessible. The company challenges today's closed, proprietary systems by pioneering open-standard networking technology, providing high-performance connectivity for AI training, inference, and cloud deployments. The round was co-led by Mayfield and Maverick Silicon, with participation from StepStone Group, Celesta Capital, Xora, Qualcomm Ventures, and others. The funding will support the launch of its new suite of open AI-native infrastructure solutions this fall. Congratulations to founders Barun Kar and Rajiv K., and the Upscale AI team.
