ZwitterCo is on a mission to solve the world's most urgent water challenges. 💧🌎 In our latest video, CEO Alex Rappaport discusses the critical role water plays in the industries driving the transition to a low-carbon economy. However, as we continue to deplete our conventional water resources, these industries face significant challenges in accessing the vast amounts of purified water they need at a low cost. That's where ZwitterCo's breakthrough membrane technologies come in. By leveraging the power of zwitterions, we have developed fouling-resistant membranes that enable the treatment of the most challenging water and wastewaters. Our membranes have the fastest and easiest cleaning of any membrane in history, allowing for long-term operation in environments that would quickly destroy traditional membranes. With the $58.4 million Series B funding we announced this week https://lnkd.in/e_KBQpNU , we'll be able to accelerate the development and deployment of our complete filtration solutions, empowering industry leaders to solve their water and wastewater challenges and build a future of water abundance. We're excited to work together with our customers, investors, and partners to ensure safe, clean, and affordable water for generations to come. Check out the full video below to learn more about the importance of water in industry and how ZwitterCo is revolutionizing water treatment. #ZwitterCo #WaterInnovation #Sustainability #Decarbonization #SeriesB

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.” In a Fireside Chat with Recursion co-founder and CEO Chris Gibson at Download Day, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang shared his vision for the future of healthcare, and how the companies are working together on a data-driven approach to drug discovery that has the potential to radically transform medicine.  ◾ Why he’s excited about this collaboration: “If you look at the foundation of Recursion, three things are in play – the invention of a new algorithm, a new family of algorithms that we call deep learning; supercomputing capabilities that you’ve used here and that we’ve partnered with you to create; and the know-how of processing and extracting the meaning of biology that’s embedded within life, within that data.” ◾ With accelerated computing and generative AI, we are changing “the type of problems we can solve,” he added. ◾ NVIDIA has been an incredible partner as we push to develop the next generation of medicines for patients in need -- including their support in building BioHive-2, the largest supercomputer in the pharma industry, which allows us to run more experiments, build more data, and develop even more powerful foundation models. Watch the full Fireside Chat here: https://lnkd.in/evqAm3QB The full day of presentations and slides from Download Day, featuring experts from across the Recursion ecosystem sharing the latest developments on our platform, pipeline and partnerships, is available here: https://lnkd.in/e9bRKvqf  #techbio #future #ai #health #medicine #pharma #tech

Drug discovery is now a technology industry. ◾ It used to be that supercomputers were only found in aerospace and engineering. Now, together with NVIDIA, we’ve built one of the top 35 supercomputers in the world – BioHive-2 – to digitize biological data at a resolution and scale that can rapidly accelerate new discoveries – and new medicines. ◾ Although demand for GPUs and supercomputers has been extremely high, we’re moving at “Recursion speed.” ◾ Together, we built BioHive-2 in less than three weeks.

Pleased to host Washington Governor Jay Inslee, members of his staff, State Representatives Mary Fosse and Julio Cortes, and officials from the Department of Health at our facilities in Everett today. Under Governor Inslee our state has emerged as an international focal point of fusion development, and earlier this year he became the third governor to sign legislation formally recognizing fusion as a source of clean energy and providing incentives tied to its development. #Fusion #FusionPower #CleanEnergy
