Starfish Space's $110M Series B and three commercial contracts make on-orbit servicing a recurring business, not a demonstration. The bet is a single-camera autonomy stack.
The Pentagon’s counter-drone task force gave CACI a $500M IDIQ to move SkyValor into full-rate production. The bet: jamming and nets beat missiles on cost-exchange math. Founders and CTOs should watch task-order velocity, not the headline.
A GE Vernova spinout trains AI on the physics simulators utilities already trust, running a month-long power-flow study in under three minutes. The $28M Series A is the marker: AI-native grid planning has moved from lab to utility procurement.
Moderna's mRNA-1010 flu vaccine beat a standard-dose shot by 26.6% relative efficacy, cleared a 9-0 advisory vote, and faces an FDA decision on August 5. What approval would mean for the flu vaccine business.
The 30 MW Barrow green hydrogen project reached final investment decision in May 2026, one of the first in the UK. The deal structure — industrial offtake, PPA, and a CfD — is the template the sector has been waiting for.
OpenAI and Broadcom's Jalapeño ASIC targets roughly 50% lower cost per token. Five hyperscalers now run their own inference silicon, and the GPU premium is fading. What the custom-silicon war means for investors.
Venus Aerospace raised a $91M Series B to scale rotating detonation rocket engines after the first US flight test of a high-thrust RDRE. A Lockheed Martin agreement pushes the platform toward long-range precision systems.
August Robotics and DEWALT's drilling robot placed 90,000+ holes at 99.97% accuracy and cut 80 weeks out of a hyperscaler's data center build. A $30M Series B led by Big Pi Ventures funds the scale-up.
