Beyond the Valley, a $320M Fund Backs Founders Everywhere Else
$320 million is a strong statement, but the message behind it matters more. Endeavor Catalyst just raised that sum to back founders building beyond Silicon Valley, and half the profits flow straight back to the nonprofit that finds them. That structure aligns incentives with impact, not just returns. It is a confident bet on overlooked markets. If you want to see how this fits into the broader funding landscape, our piece on Lambda's $4B raise offers useful context.
arXiv’s Future Secured with $17.2M in Philanthropic Support
arXiv has long been the quiet backbone of open research, so it's good to see that foundation get real backing. A $17.2 million investment from Simons Foundation International, XTX Markets, and Siegel Family Endowment, spread over three to five years, is a serious vote of confidence in its mission. This isn't just about keeping the servers running; it's about ensuring the platform evolves without losing its soul.
Explore how Current AI builds an accessible future for every culture
Current AI is racing to build the World Wide Web of AI, free for all, and its progress across devices and chat is genuinely encouraging. We like that this nonprofit is pushing to ensure no culture gets left behind in the AI wave. It is a bold, human-centered goal.
