Tomorrow at #VA2026 📆: @aaronperman joins Alexandru Monul, Karen Robinson Cope, and Mike Dowdle for an #AskMeAnything panel on the investor mindset. Seats are limited, so be sure to register and bring your questions on fundraising, pitching, valuations, and more. See everyone in Atlanta 💫

‼️Portfolio Announcement: We’re excited to announce our investment in @mmimicro_inc's oversubscribed $125M Series D! Led by CEO Mark Toland, @mmimicro_inc built the Symani® Surgical System, a first-of-its-kind robotic platform for microsurgery. Symani’s micro-wristed robotic platform brings microsurgery to scale through tremor reduction and motion scaling, giving surgeons greater precision and control during complex procedures. This fundraise will support @mmimicro_inc's commercial expansion across the U.S. and into key global markets and accelerate breakthrough clinical applications. Congratulations to the MMI team, lead investor BioStar Capital and additional co-investors. We’re honored to be backing Mark and the MMI team!

🎉Portfolio Announcement: We're proud to share we participated in the second close of @quantum_motion's oversubscribed #SeriesC, backing their vision to revolutionize #QuantumCompute at scale. Led by CEO James Palles-Dimmock, @quantum_motion is revolutionizing quantum computing through its full-stack silicon CMOS architecture. Their silicon transistor-based systems are designed for deployment in standard data center racks to deliver utility-scale quantum compute at 1/100th the cost and space of alternatives, while using 1/1000th the energy. This means governments and enterprises across industries—pharmaceuticals running molecular simulations, financial firms optimizing portfolios in real-time, AI researchers accelerating machine learning—will one day be able to tackle problems previously confined to researchers and enterprises with hardware budgets in the hundreds of millions. Quantum Motion's vision is especially prescient today, given the vast capital and infrastructure buildout to support exponential compute at scale. We're excited to back @quantum_motion in this round, led by @DCVC and Kembara VC, with participation from imec.ventures, Lansdowne Partners, @Sony_Innov_Fund, and Inkef. Full story in the comments + an interview with our General Partner @aaronperman👇

🎉 We're proud to share that we led Cloverleaf AI's $8M #SeriesA to bring pre-RFP intelligence to B2G sales teams! The US government is one of the largest buyers of US-based tech and services, yet most vendors miss key opportunities because they were unaware of pending RFPs. Cloverleaf AI is rectifying this by bringing clarity to the earliest stages of the RFP process. Their platform ingests and structures thousands of hours of government meetings and translates agendas, minutes, budgets, and legislation into buyer intent signals which enables sellers to act on RFPs months before bids hit the market. Congratulations to Co-Founders Adam Zucker and Jeremy Becker, and to our co-investors Jackson Square Ventures, Ivy Ventures, and Tawani Ventures!
