From our PearX S25 cohort, meet Pravāh, the AI-native operating system for the electric grid When Mohak Mangal, Dhruv Suri, and Aman Gupta looked at the strain on the U.S. electric grid, they saw a system pushed to its limits. Exploding demand and unpredictable supply have made blackouts increasingly common. This costs the economy more than $150B a year, a number that could 10x in the next five years. Mohak Mangal and team founded Pravāh to help fix it. Their platform helps utilities and grid operators make real-time decisions on load, generation, and congestion, reducing blackout risks, optimizing power procurement, and bringing much-needed stability to the backbone of modern life. We’re proud to support the Pravāh team as they take on one of the toughest and most important infrastructure challenges of our time.

🎬 A futuristic conversation from the 𝐁𝐞𝐲𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐬 podcast with Suraj Nangia (ACA , LLM, CMAA , GMP)! We discussed the shocking idea of a robot in China giving birth to a human baby and how artificial wombs and AI could redefine reproduction. What feels like science fiction today may soon shape real-world fertility solutions. I also shared insights on India’s fertility landscape, the hidden challenges of infertility, social stigma, ethical concerns, and the tough choices between IVF, surrogacy, and adoption. These conversations are crucial to prepare society for the future of reproductive healthcare. #BeyondTitles #SurajNangia #FutureOfHealthcare #FertilityInnovation #AIInHealthcare #ArtificialWomb #ReproductiveHealth #IVFIndia #BreakTheStigma #HealthcareConversations #ScienceMeetsHope Suraj Nangia (ACA , LLM, CMAA , GMP) Risaa IVF Neos Angels Network

🚀Initiation of Coverage Agility Robotics 🚀 We’ve initiated coverage on Agility Robotics for IPO CLUB’s flagship fund, America2030, within the robotics sector covered by me, with the help of Helen Zhou. Headquartered in Corvallis, Oregon, the company builds bipedal humanoid robots designed to operate in human-centric environments. Its mission is to solve labor shortages and automate dull, dirty, and dangerous tasks across logistics and manufacturing. 🔍Why we like Agility Robotics Commercial first-mover advantage: Achieved the industry’s first revenue-generating humanoid deployment with GXO Logistics, Inc., proving real-world value while competitors remain in pilot mode. Differentiated biomimetic technology: The Digit platform uses dynamic bipedal locomotion, passive dynamics, and a unique backward-leg design for efficient, human-like mobility across stairs, cables, and uneven terrain. Manufacturing scale readiness: The RoboFab facility in Salem— the world’s first dedicated humanoid robot factory—gives Agility a production runway toward 10,000 units/year, a 12–18 month lead over peers. 💡Notable Investors DCVC, Playground Global, WP Global Partners, Amazon, Schaeffler,Sony, SoftBank Investment Advisers, MFV Partners, TDK Ventures ⚔️ Competitive Landscape Primary competitors include Figure, Tesla, Apptronik, Boston Boston Dynamics, and Sanctuary AI. Agility differentiates through logistics-first commercialization, proven deployments, and factory-scale readiness, while others emphasize demos, internal R&D, or general-purpose manipulation capabilities. 🌍 With hundreds of robots planned for production in 2025 and RoboFab scaling toward 10,000 units annually, Agility is emerging as one of the most commercially advanced humanoid companies globally. By focusing on brownfield automation and real-world logistics workflows, it is building the backbone of next-generation warehouse automation and mobile manipulation. #Robotics #Automation #Humanoids #LogisticsTech #DeepTech #VentureCapital #America2030

Generative AI’s greatest potential lies in the physical world, where the ability to simulate, design, and iterate faster can reshape trillion-dollar sectors. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce that N47 is leading Luminary Cloud’s $72M Series B. The Luminary team is pioneering the Physics AI Model Factory, underpinned by a GPU-native physics simulation platform. This technology is designed from the ground up to unleash the performance of modern GPUs and generate the high-value datasets that power next-generation AI. Now, engineers can run hundreds of design iterations overnight instead of waiting days. AI models trained on physics-grounded data can suggest new aerodynamic designs or optimize energy systems in ways previously impossible, and companies across industries can accelerate their innovation cycles while reducing cost. With co-founders Juan Alonso and Pete Schlampp, Luminary has the technical depth and operational experience to define the new era of Physics AI. We’re proud to partner with them as they create the future of simulation and redefine what’s possible in the built world. Learn more about Luminary Cloud’s vision here: https://lnkd.in/gbjeWrvy
