Congratulations to Maayan Salom, Or Avidov and the Elementary data team on joining Boomi!

Elementary helps data teams catch and fix data issues before they reach dashboards, models and AI agents. What began as an open-source project is now used by more than 1,500 data teams, with 1.1M+ downloads a month and a community of about 4,000 members.

AI is only as trustworthy as the data behind it. Elementary adds its data observability and reliability capabilities to the Boomi Enterprise Platform, giving enterprises the data quality and governance they need to run AI in production.

Looking forward to seeing what the team builds next as part of Boomi 🚀

Quantum computing is entering a new phase. Breakthroughs are accelerating, real-world applications are getting closer, and the convergence of AI and quantum computing could fundamentally change how we think about computing.

But how close are we to quantum computing's own "ChatGPT moment"?

In the latest episode of Behind the Investment, Rona Segev sits down with Itamar Sivan, Co-Founder & CEO of Quantum Machines, to discuss what's driving the rapid progress in quantum computing, the technological breakthroughs reshaping the field, and what the next few years could look like.

They also reflect on their journey together since 2018, when we first backed Quantum Machines, long before quantum computing gained today's momentum.

Today, we remember those we lost on October 7, and the families who continue to carry their absence every day.

We remember Yaron Oree Shay, the brother of our colleague Ophir Shay, who fell bravely while defending Kibbutz Kerem Shalom. In his memory, Ophir and his family founded Next October אוקטובר הבא, an initiative connecting Israeli startups with the stories of those lost, helping carry their memory forward through innovation and entrepreneurship.

We also carry in our hearts those who were wounded, in body and in spirit, and continue to live with the impact of that day. One initiative supporting that recovery is TERRA UMA, which helps combat soldiers living with PTSD through winemaking as part of their journey toward recovery and rehabilitation.

Remembering those we lost, and standing with all those who continue to carry the impact of October 7.
May their memory be a blessing🕯️

Huge congratulations to Guy Bortnikov, Lior Gorbonos, and the entire Inferize team on their acquisition by Nebius!

Founded just this January, Inferize built a working prototype within three months, tackling one of the key challenges in AI infrastructure: helping large AI models get up and running faster, while making better use of GPU capacity and improving the economics of inference at scale.

Now, the team will bring its technology and systems expertise to Nebius Token Factory, helping strengthen its production inference stack.

We’re proud to have backed Guy, Lior, and the team from day one, and excited to see what they build next at Nebius.

We led Buildots’ Seed round back in 2018, when the idea of bringing AI to the construction industry was still far from obvious. Eight years later, Buildots is powering the global data center buildout and has just announced $130M in new funding, bringing its total capital raised to $297M.

Shahar Tzafrir sat down with Buildots Co-Founder & CPO Aviv Leibovici to reflect on the company’s remarkable journey and discuss how the global data center boom is reshaping the construction industry and creating a massive opportunity ahead.
