We’ve invested in Max Space, a new Draper Cygnus portfolio company 🚀
Max Space is building the foundational habitat layer for the next space economy, making permanent presence in orbit viable for the first time.

With the ISS retiring by 2030, orbital infrastructure becomes the bottleneck.
Led by Maxim de Jong, Aaron Kemmer, and Saleem Miyan, second-time founders with flight-proven tech, Max Space enables permanence, not just access.

Last Thursday we hosted one of our regular dinners with founders, LPs, and members of the DC Mafia. 🙌🏻
No rigid agenda. No deck. Just people building, backing, and thinking seriously about what comes next.

Everyone left with a copy of Breakfast with Pops by @AdamDraper.
Three generations of venture distilled into perspective, not formulas.
That’s what these dinners are about. The table compounds.

Martin Sajon, CEO of @q99ai, joined NYSE Floor Talk to explain what quantum computing actually does and why timing matters. Quantum isn’t theoretical. For the right problems, it’s already operational.

Q99 is applying quantum to real-world business challenges. In logistics, they reduced daily routes by 225 km for one client, cutting maintenance costs by 25% and extending vehicle lifetime by 15%.
Measurable impact. Not hype.

🛰️ Last year @SkyloomG was acquired by @IonQ_Inc (NASDAQ: IONQ). For us, this is more than an exit.
We invested the first check before commercial clarity existed. Before anyone in the region was having this conversation.

For founders in the region, Skyloom proves one thing: Latin American deep tech doesn't need to adapt to global standards. It can set them.

We just wrapped our #AnnualSummit2026 in San Francisco.
The DC Mafia in one room: founders, investors, and ecosystem builders having real conversations about where deep tech is going and who's building it.
See you at the next one! 🚀

We visited @splight_ai offices in SF during our Annual Summit. One of our earliest bets and proof of why we invest before the consensus forms. The energy problem is transmission.
Splight solves it with software.
Now, let Thomas Vadora (Co-founder) speak for himself🎥

Last week, our portfolio founders met with @TimDraper and @AdamDraper at the #DCAnnualSummit2026 in San Francisco.
Private meetings where they talked about what they're building, the technical challenges behind it, and where they're taking these companies long-term💪🏻

Since 2018, we has been part of the Draper ecosystem. Tim and Adam: thank you for the time. It means more than a meeting.
Hear what they think about the portfolio, in their own words 🎥

Mafia Day at the #DCAnnualSummit2026. Here's what Thursday looked like.
We brought three colleagues from the Silicon Valley deep tech ecosystem: Arturo Litvin (@intelcapital), Nicolas Enriquez (@VenturesVc), and Valerie Osband Mahoney (@NFX). 🧵

The topics were: capital efficiency, AI as infrastructure, and what it actually takes to scale deep tech. Direct feedback. No softening.
Also, we lunch with @AdamDraper. A conversation worth unpacking separately! 😉

We closed the day with a Deep Tech Asado in Standford made by @danielsalvu. The kind of ending that only makes sense in this community.
This is what it looks like when a firm builds real relationships with its founders. 🚀

Ninth year coming to Silicon Valley and third year bringing portfolio founders with us.
The Draper Network held its 41st Summit in Half Moon Bay and we showed up with companies building at the frontier. 🧵

Yesterday, Lucas Czentner from Ayuvant and Victoria Costa Paz from Eywa Biotech pitched to a live audience and we joined the Meet The Drapers program, Silicon Valley edition.
There was also a private portfolio session with Tim. More on that soon! 🤫

The core thesis hasn't changed: Latino founders building at the frontier need more than funding. They need the context to operate globally. That context comes from being in the room, year after year, until the room feels familiar.
