An elite generation of founders are solving the world’s hardest problems and building the technologies that will shape Europe’s future across our most critical industries. The crux of Plural's founding thesis is starting to play out: non-obvious, hard companies matter.

1/ Today, @pluralplatform is investing $10.25m into @CallosumAI, a startup building a new class of company to enable more diverse, powerful and efficient compute, unlocking entirely new kinds of AI systems and discoveries that today’s hardware paradigm will never deliver.

The future of compute & AI is heterogeneous.
That future is being built by Callosum.
Today we launch with new breakthroughs made possible by heterogeneity, new scaling principles & a roadmap reimagining compute & AI infrastructure:

February 24th is 🇪🇪Estonian Independence Day.
Sadly it also marks four years since Russia entered full scale war against 🇺🇦Ukraine.
It’s a day to remember that freedoms are precious and fragile. And a day to act:

1/ Europe can lead in hypersonics - if it builds differently and builds faster. That’s why I led @pluralplatform’s investment into @HypersonicaGmbH’s €23 million Series A

Repeat founders, world-class experience and unstoppable ambition - @andreasklinger's spotlight on @sunriserobots and @tomazstolfa perfectly encapsulates the seriously tough missions Europe is tackling right now 🔥
14 Nov 2025
🇪🇺🔥 Europe’s manufacturing edge is at real risk – too much capacity is moving to China, and what stays is hard to scale. The surprising solution might be a two-arm robot cell being built in a new lab in Ljubljana.
I visited Sunrise Robotics to see how they’re building a new type of automation that could reshape European industry.
Why it matters:
• Europe is the world’s #2 manufacturing hub (~17–18%)
• 50% of output is small-batch (high-mix/low-volume) → hard to automate
• Millions of workers will retire or be out of job due to outsourcing
• Sunrise created a standardized, simulation-trained cell
• One operator can supervise multiple of these stations to build more complex products
• This is a key to keeping factories – and competitiveness – in Europe
I truly think Sunrise can become a global automation leader – disclaimer: I was their first (small) investor and first (big) fan. 🔥
The video shows everything: the test lab, the simulation stack, the UI, the assembly line, the first production batches… and a deep dive with CEO @tomazstolfa on the vision behind it.
Full video link in the reply.
If you enjoy it, please like subscribe on YT – this really helps boost this kind of content. 🔥
If you care about robotics, automation, European competitiveness, or the future of work – checkout this video.
PS: I was absurdly sick during the shoot… apologies for any sloppy camera work and spaced-out staring 😅

The UK has an edge in quantum, with world class talent and startups like @PhasecraftLtd. Now, they have an opportunity to build, not sell. @soundboy and Phasecraft's @quantumashley spoke to the @FT’s @johngapper about the importance of staying independent: ft.com/content/c691caf6-3a54…

the reason I love the @pluralplatform thesis comes down to one line - " Non-obvious hard companies matter."

"Every fund in America is right now like American dynamism. It's like, you know, robotics, hardware" @andreasklinger, @prototype_cap
The word European Dynamism will be in your vocabulary in 2026.
"There's very good funds in Europe, that are hardware investing on large scale. Like @pluralplatform is a very good one, for example, in my opinion, they're going to be one of the best funds in Europe."

@taavet : 1st Employee @Skype | Cofounder @Wise
@seikatsu : CEO, Teleport | CPO, Topia

@IanHogarth: Cofounder, @songkick

For @andreasklinger it's like the future founders fund of Europe, basically, you know, very opinionated & GDP driven"

Why Europe now: unfettered ambition, innovation and talent🔥(turn it up 🔊)
1 Sep 2025
“AC this, wash dryer that, US woohoo, EU boohoo” - Why are we eating this brand-warfare from the outside about us up?
Europe has the strongest precision manufacturing in the world, we have leading teams in AI, CV, robotics. Europe is a leader in Automation and Frontier Tech!
Not a single NVIDIA chip could be produced without European machines. Not a single American cloud, robotics, or deep-tech firm would operate without European manufacturing or suppliers.
But we are too humble. Brainwashed to never celebrate Europe. By outsiders and our local politicians.
Time for a change.
Europe is the birthplace of industrialization.
The home of frontier tech.
Time, we act like it.
Welcome to the real Europe! 🔥🇪🇺

We just delivered an ENTIRE BLOCK of 8 houses near in Assendelft (near Amsterdam).
All the brickwork was entirely done with a fleet of 5 of Monumental's robots (yes, including the corners) working together, a first in the world.
