Snowpoint Ventures is excited to share that Shield AI has announced the launch of their V-Bat Teams!
 
“V-BAT Teams is the first step in intelligent, affordable mass not as a concept, but as an operational product. We’re starting with a team size of four V-BATs, but that number will double annually for the foreseeable future." Brandon Tseng

Shield AI V-Bat Teams operate in a resilient and intelligent manner by using specialized onboard autonomy capabilities and AI to adapt to varying conditions and to be able to navigate conditions where communications may be degraded or denied. Technology like this can help counter vulnerabilities across currently used assets and stands to continue to push modernization across industries like these. It’s innovation like this that is central to Snowpoint Ventures's thesis and the companies that we look to invest in.

At Snowpoint Ventures we are proud to share that one of our portfolio companies Shield AI has announced a fresh round of funding to help accelerate their growth. 
 
“Intelligent, affordable mass will be the most strategic conventional deterrent for the next 25 years” and Shield AI's complete technology suite from hardware to software fills this need.

At Snowpoint Ventures, data sits at the core of our investment thesis and how companies can better leverage the vast amounts of information at their fingertips. 

One company's distinct approach to this is Gecko Robotics, Inc. that uses their uniquely designed robots to map critical infrastructure. Essentially, providing companies and governments with an accurate and complete digital twin to help mitigate risk of potential catastrophic failures. "There are hundreds of types of corrosion, and we’ve been developing technology and software to analyze what kind of damage is happening.” - Jake Loosararian, Gecko Robotics CEO

The company is pushing the boundaries by focusing on how robots can be a key component to the overall solution set to this global problem.

Today we joined fellow VCs and technology companies in co-signing a letter addressed to the Secretary of Defense about the need to improve the adoption of innovation within the United States Department of Defense. We believe that there is an immense opportunity and an urgent need for commercial technology adoption within the Department of Defense and this letter supports a series of actionable recommendations developed by the Atlantic Council’s Commission on Defense Innovation Adoption report designed to reform acquisition and overcome barriers to integration.
 
The letter states that adopting these changes will “dramatically improve the ability of Silicon Valley to deliver the world’s best technologies to the warfighter”
 
Snowpoint’s own, Doug Philippone, is an Industry Commissioner for this Atlantic Council report.
