  • 🤯 ℝ𝕒𝕣𝕖 𝕖𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕙 𝕖𝕝𝕖𝕞𝕖𝕟𝕥𝕤 move through a 50,000 mile supply chain (= 2x 🌍circumference and almost entirely in geopolitically complicated regions) before the final product reaches consumers in the West. Think: every computer, EV, turbine, and even washing machines — not to mention AI data centers, drones, and humanoid robotics of the future. That’s why we are backing Cyclic Materials and Ahmad for the second time in two years — to help bring much-needed innovation and resiliency to REE supply chain and recycling infrastructure (which is still near-zero at scale today.) Congrats to the entire Cyclic team for successfully completing the Series C raise! 🚀

    Cyclic Materials is thrilled to announce the closing of its oversubscribed USD $75M #SeriesC equity round, a major milestone in our mission to build a secure and domestic supply chain for #RareEarthElements. From AI and robotics to EVs, defense and other critical industries, the need for a resilient source of #RareEarths and #CriticalMinerals has never been more crucial. As demand grows rapidly, industries and global players are turning to #RareEarthRecycling as an alternative to mining—a faster, lower-risk path to secure long-term supply, particularly for heavy rare earths, critical for high-performance permanent magnets. This round was led by accounts advised by T. Rowe Price alongside continued support from existing shareholders and additional participation from Canada Growth Fund (CGF). This support reflects growing confidence in Cyclic Materials’ technology, vision, and ability to scale impact globally. With this investment, we will accelerate the deployment of our recycling technology, expand operations, and help secure resilient supply for the REEs that are critical to the future of Western industry.

  • 🚨 We are excited to double down on Karen Baert, Tristan Gilbert, and Ammobia as they bring much-needed innovation to ammonia production. Apparently, the energy majors and chemical giants agree!

    "Ammonia might be the world's most under appreciated chemical." We couldn't agree more, TechCrunch/ Tim De Chant as we announce our $7.5M funding round this week including Air Liquide's ALIAD (Air Liquide Venture Capital), Shell Ventures, Chevron Technology Ventures, MOL Switch LLC (Mitsui OSK VC), Katapult Ocean, Starlight Ventures, Collaborative Fund, AROSA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LP, Zero Infinity Partners, Alumni Ventures and more Ammonia is everywhere: it's in the fertilizer that grows half the world's food, it’s an emerging deep sea shipping fuel, and it’s globally traded to transport energy from where it’s produced to where it’s needed. The global economy runs on 200 million tons of it every year. But the conventional Haber-Bosch process – unchanged since 1909 – requires crushing pressure (200 bar), intense heat (500°C), and produces nearly 2% of all global CO₂ emissions. For over a century, the industry has treated this as immutable physics. Our plant designs are fundamentally different from conventional Haber-Bosch. ✔️ Energy-source agnostic ✔️ Running at 10x lower pressure ✔️ 150°C lower temperatures ✔️ With the potential to cut capex costs up to 50% ✔️ And – we can turn them on and off with renewable energy, and they're modularto deploy wherever demand exists, not just at massive central facilities. With this funding we will build a pilot and select our first customer cohort for an industrial demonstration What our team at Ammobia has built changes a 4-industry game. For agriculture, maritime shipping, chemical production, and the  energy transition: It’s low-cost ammonia production, fueling the world.

  • ⚡️Boom Supersonic might be best known for bringing supersonic back. But there’s a second story that matters for infrastructure + AI: Boom is stepping into the aeroderivative arena as the new prince on the block. For decades, “aeroderivative” power has meant: take jet-engine DNA, package it for the grid, and win on speed, footprint, and reliability when the world needs fast-start MW. What’s different now: 💥AI loads are exploding 📋Interconnection queues are brutal 💡Behind-the-meter is becoming the new default for high-availability compute Boom’s move: “Superpower” — a 42 MW natural gas turbine designed for large BTM power needs (think data centers), in an ISO container-sized footprint, deployable fast, and adaptable from simple-cycle to combined-cycle. Whether you love it or hate it, this is a real signal: aeroderivative isn’t just a 1970s jet-core story anymore — it’s becoming next-gen infrastructure for AI-era resilience We are excited to be an investor, following a $300M Series B led by our friends at Darsana Capital Partners LP — and to back Blake Scholl and the entire team!

  • At ZIP, we’ve backed teams pushing aviation infrastructure forward, and the need has never been clearer: ✈️  Thousands of flights are guided by U.S. Air Traffic Control (ATC) using tech predating smartphones. That said, air travel is still the safest mode of transport (statistically) — a testament to the Controllers who keep our skies safe. ⚠️ With air traffic rising and a nationwide Controller shortage, the strain is showing. 🛠️ That’s why the FAA is moving to modernize 74,000+ ATC systems — a long-overdue upgrade for the backbone of U.S. aviation. ➡️ Swipe for insights from ZIP Venture Partner Ben Frank (former aerospace founder) on why updating ATC infrastructure is critical to the future of flight. 💪 Shoutout to ZIP’s aviation-focused portfolio companies: Azalea Robotics, Metropolis Technologies, Moonware, Opfyx, and Humoniq (YC S25)

  • 🤯 The U.S. has more data centers than the next 10 countries combined — with 5,000+ in operation and 600+ in Virginia alone.   📈 As a % of GDP, AI data center capex now exceeds the 2000s telecom boom — and ranks second only to the 1800s railroad build-out.   📚What’s different this time? Instead of government funding or traditional developers, it’s Big Tech — AMZN, MSFT, META, GOOG — deploying enormous free cash flow into real physical infrastructure.   ⏩ Check out the charts below.
