As AI scales, the constraint is shifting from chips to electricity.

A pitch deck shows the highlights. Beyond the Deck, the monthly SilverX session for its investors, goes further: a founder, operator or domain expert walks through how a business or technology really works.

SilverX Venture Partner Nanda Kodimyala joined the reactor panel at Founders Network’s #SFTechWeek evening on October 6, where VC-backed #AI founders pitched to a packed room at Salesforce Tower, San Francisco, with the Bay as the backdrop.

A #VentureCapital fund typically runs seven to ten years, and LPs now judge it less on value on paper (TVPI, IRR) and more on cash actually returned (#DPI).

On #Vijayadashami, here’s to clarity of purpose and the courage of conviction. Wishing founders, partners and the wider #StartupIndia community a very #HappyDussehra from #SilverXFund.

#DurgaPuja in #Kolkata shows what happens when culture, craft and commerce come together at city scale.

SilverX Fund is opening the doors to its #DealRoom. Inside SilverX’s Deal Room is a new monthly webinar series and part of the fund’s knowledge-sharing effort.

India spends a fraction of what the US does on defence, but gives it almost exactly the same share of its government budget: 8.2% against 8.3%. That makes #Defence a priority, not simply a line item.

Nanda Kodimyala, Venture Partner at SilverX Fund, will be in Atlanta and the Bay Area for conversations across technology, AI, venture capital and company building.

Every new beginning carries possibility. What matters is what we build from it. This #VinayakaChaturthi, here’s to ideas taking shape, obstacles giving way, and new journeys finding their path forward.

#DeepTech rarely struggles for technical ambition. The harder part is turning that ambition into #Commercialisation and ultimately, paid adoption.

Semiconductors are no longer just about making faster chips. As the world demands more energy-efficient computing and AI drives unprecedented investment in data centres, the need for better semiconductor technologies is only growing.
