Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Jonathan Godwin, CEO at Orbital: Orbital raised $50m Series B
Q: Why open source the Orb model?
To amplify impact beyond Orbital itself, give back to the community that trained their team, and because the business model focuses on selling hardware rather than software licenses.
Jonathan Godwin, CEO at Orbital: Orbital raised $50m Series B
Q: So, tell me about the data center angle. What is it that you're building and deploying there?
The main breakthrough is a new cooling materials category for GPUs discovered via Orbital's AI platform, enabling GPUs to stay cooler as performance increases, and the ability to scale material development faster than traditional approaches.
Sai Shivareddy, Founder and CEO at Nyobolt: Building the critical power infrastructure for the AI world
Q: What's it like being founded in Cambridge, and how does that affect scaling?
Cambridge provides a strong talent and research ecosystem, but real scaling requires going beyond the city to build factories and supply chains globally; the platform started there and then expanded to ensure manufacturing and partnerships happen at scale.
Sai Shivareddy, Founder and CEO at Nyobolt: Building the critical power infrastructure for the AI world
Q: Can you give a quick overview into Nyobolt and what you do?
Nyobolt develops ultra-dense energy storage technologies, enabling very high input power densities and long cycle life by leveraging new materials and a full stack solution that includes hardware and software integration for AI infrastructure, from robots to data centers.
Meet Tyler Edwards: The former MI5 and GCHQ agent who just raised £2m for his AI systems!
Q: What unlocked the seed round and convinced investors to back Overmind?
The combination of a differentiated team with defense and intelligence experience, a compelling vision for runtime AI security that targets developers rather than just enterprises, and a proven ability to ship and iterate—evidenced by early customer success during semi-stealth—made investors confident to back Overmind.
