Venture Guides

To wrap up a fantastic week at #GTC25, the Venture Guides team wants to share our top 10 learnings...do you agree? What would you add? -- NVIDIA is coming up the stack to the app with numerous libraries and frameworks --NVIDIA is full stack, not just compute --Resourcing - Dynamo is interesting but needs way more to max out GPU and assure performance --LLM -> AGI -> not so fast --Scaling laws -> hunger for power & data sustainable? --Robots are arriving with very strong momentum --Quantum - faster but different from what you might think. NVAQC in Boston soon :) --No substitute for unique data coupled with deep domain expertise --Need surgical precision finding your initial wedge and ICP --Apps and verticals -> huge opportunities; AI is a means to an end Keep those cables untangled and see you at #GTC26!

#GTC25 Quantum might be closer than you think ?? High-quality panel discussion with top startups led by Jensen. Highly recommended for anyone interested in quantum. Packed audience - additional viewing rooms needed!

The SAP Center is buzzing with energy ahead of the keynote. Send me a message if you'd like to connect this week. #GTC25

...And what a keynote it was at #GTC25 ! We had front-row seats! Unveiling the new compute roadmap from Blackwell Ultra to Feynman, silicon photonics, semantic storage -?all the way to robotics innovations. On the software side Dynamo inferencing is super exciting. Amazing keynote - what did you like best?

#GTC25 is about to kick into high gear with Jensen’s keynote.?Lots of people already in line and the excitement is building for the latest unveils. Follow us as we give you the highlights of what feels today like the Coachella for AI:)?

Great to have you in the office for SKO! Enjoy the next two days Team Compyl! ??

Enterprise AI is at a crossroads. On one hand, the ecstasy: AI promises autonomy, reliability, and explainability—built on a shared knowledge structure that enables true understanding. On the other, the agony: integration struggles, complex ontologies, and the challenge of making semantic layers feel tangible to enterprises. In Part 1 of this series, we explore why semantic layers are the missing link in AI—bridging automation with meaning. But unlocking their potential comes with hurdles. Part 2 will focus on how enterprises and vendors can work together to turn this essential (yet abstract) concept into reality. AI can write code, but does it understand systems? It can summarize, but does it grasp facts? The key to AI’s future isn’t just more data—it’s structured, contextual knowledge. ??

As we wrap up February, we’re excited to launch the first blog in our 12-month GTM ACCELERATION series! This month, we’re diving into the “A” – Appointing a leader and hiring your GTM team. Hiring at this stage isn’t just about filling roles—it’s about laying the foundation for long-term success. The right hires bring capacity, adaptability, accountability, and a shared vision that propels your company forward. On the flip side, bad hires can stall momentum and create cultural misalignment. In a small team, every hire has an outsized impact. The best leaders build diverse teams with complementary strengths, ensuring they augment—not duplicate—each other’s abilities... ??
