thanks @BainCapVC --- I've known @rkhkimx for a long time and am excited to be on the same team. (Also love this gif wow)
Demand for AI will outpace the supply of data and compute. The winners will be those who get the most out of every byte and GPU cycle. @flappyairplanes is tackling both, from kernels to pretraining. Congrats to @amspector100, @spectorb, @aidanmantine and the Flappy team on their $1B Series A. ✈️

Listening to @ScottWu46, and his unique blend of EQ & IQ, you see how @cognition can bridge the different worlds of research lab & enterprise transformation company
“Remember Devin? It works now.” After the internet said it wouldn’t, Cognition put that on a billboard. The @cognition story with @ScottWu46 and @aaref.

I'm honored to share that @BainCapVC is leading @solcoatech's $75M seed financing. One year ago they were proving chemistry on a demo line, they've since scaled to a full production facility in Alameda, and today announce Solcoa One, their 500-tonne rare earth metallization plant in Nevada.

BCV have been truly great partners to Loyal since our Series B ballsy + rigorous + founder friendly + low ego + now with another $1.6 billy!
In 1987, when Bain Capital was ≈3 years old, the early partners came up with the briefest possible mantra for running the firm: make money, have fun, live with integrity. Excited that BCV has another $1.6B to do that. @kevinzhang , @ChristinaPhili5 , and I wrote a bit about those principles and the role that capital should play in a technological revolution: baincapitalventures.com/insi…

BCV raised a new fund, but they somehow can’t afford to not run ads in their announcement? Something’s not adding up Congrats @ChristinaPhili5 @rkhkimx and co!
We are thrilled to announce $1.6B of new early stage capital to back founders building for a Post-AGI world. It's never been a better time to build a highly ambitious company. For the first time, AI can do the work, which means tapping into labor budgets instead of just software budgets. Chips, energy, physical AI, robotics, and personal software are all exploding. We want to hear the most ambitious ideas. In a time of rapid change, there is wisdom in heritage. While Bain Capital is large today, approximately $225B in AUM across its many strategies and geographies, the firm began with just $37M in 1984. In 1987, the early partners sat down to codify their principles for running the firm into a simple mantra. In 2026, we feel that mantra is the right one for an investment firm at the beginning of technological revolution: Make Money. Have Fun. Live with Integrity. We are ready to go!
