What an incredible year at Akash Systems! In 2024, we hit some major milestones, including: ❄️ Launched our new product - the coolest, fastest Diamond-Cooled servers in the world 🤝Announced a $27 million deal with NxtGen Cloud Technologies Pvt Ltd - India’s largest Cloud Compute service provider 🪙Secured $68 million of CHIPS Act Funding by the U.S. Department of Commerce 🚀Announced our partnership with Pixxel, who is launching our satellite radios into space next year None of this would have been possible without the team at Akash, and the support of our amazing investors, who always have our backs: Khosla Ventures, Founders Fund, Kearny Jackson, ACME Capital, Backstage Capital, Correlation Ventures, Bracket Capital, and many more. To everyone who has supported us on our journey, thank you. 🙏 We are so excited for 2025—there’s some incredible news on the horizon, and we can’t wait to share it. Until then, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

Have you noticed that cooling your laptop with an ice pack won’t make it faster? That's because the real problem lies at the chip level That’s why Akash Systems goes straight to the source of the heat with Diamond Cooling, which is why we have the coolest and fastest servers in the world. 

The future of AI and data centers is at risk—unless we use a new solution. At Akash Systems, we believe a breakthrough in material science and a physics-first approach is essential to prevent AI’s exponential energy demands from overwhelming the grid. We must make substantial changes. Now.

Congratulations to Lisa Su on being named CEO of the Year by TIME! Your leadership and innovation at AMD have truly set a new standard for excellence. This recognition is well-deserved and a testament to your incredible vision and impact on the tech industry. 🎉
