RNA- and DNA-based treatments (gene/cell therapy) have high upfront costs but are curative and more economical than chronic care. Regulators should work with insurers and manufacturers to cover costs and introduce new business models, like gradual payment plans. More in 🧵

We’re seeing a new wave of gene therapy companies developing exquisitely customized viral vectors + other advanced techniques that can deliver therapeutic genes to the body with far more specificity and at much lower doses and cost than before. 👇 dcvc.com/news-insights/…

We’ve opened a new 20,000 sq. ft. manufacturing facility outside Boulder, Colorado. The site expands Guidance, Navigation, and Control (GNC) development for Mira and Helios. And, it adds multi-axis CNC and precision mill-turn machining for propulsion hardware, including valves used during orbital burns. And we’re growing our team in the region.

That's one hungry-looking hippo inside Neutron's Assembly & Integration Complex in Virginia. Our carbon composite reusable fairing - the first of its kind! - is undergoing final fluids and avionics integration, end-to-end systems testing, and installation of its canards and thermal protection system.

We know times are tough and margins are tight across agriculture, which makes planning even harder. That’s why we’re taking action. Pivot Bio has lowered our price and increased U.S. production to help ensure availability during peak planting. Our goal is simple: be a dependable partner and provide a stable, domestically produced source of nitrogen that helps strengthen the foundation of your fertility program. businesswire.com/news/home/2026… #plant26 #grow26 #fertilizer #cropnutrition

Major congrats to the @qctrlHQ team, which we're proud to have backed since 2018! Note the use of the glorious term "real-world" here: this is quantum making a real difference to real people in real time 💪
Q-CTRL@qctrlHQ

We are partnering with @Airbus to test and evaluate quantum navigation that enables safe, reliable flights in environments where GPS is disrupted or unavailable. See how Ironstone Opal is setting a new standard for flight and operational resilience. buff.ly/3i7rBrO

We think there’s room in the life science industry for a new kind of company that relies on a mix of deep lab expertise and data-driven computing  to get new treatments to market much faster and more efficiently than older approaches. We call that combination TechBio.

💧 Water offsets, patterned after familiar carbon offsets, could be a big win-win for industry, allowing operators of water-intensive facilities such as data centers to expand without increasing net water consumption. Learn more about our thinking (in 🧵)

Being hired by Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada is "just another gig for Digit, which is not only the world’s first humanoid robot to ever get a paying job but also works at GXO Logistics, Inc.... Schaeffler... and Amazon" Terrific @Forbes coverage from @johnkoetsier of @agilityrobotics' integration at Toyota, one of the global pinnacles of lean manufacturing (link in 🧵)

🤖 It's official—Digit got another big job! This move into full commercial deployment with Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada is another huge win for @agilityrobotics. A real robot doing real work for real customers and freeing workers to focus on higher-value, easier-on-the-body tasks: the human + robot workforce has arrived. 💪 🦾
Agility@agilityrobotics

Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada has signed a commercial agreement with us to deploy Digit across its production facilities. The goal is straightforward: give team members more capacity for the work that actually requires them. bit.ly/4kHLtqR

@RadiantNuclear continues to execute and get recognized by serious players for their differentiated, meaningful accomplishments.
Radiant@RadiantNuclear

We’re excited to share that @LockheedMartin has joined us on our mission to mass-produce portable nuclear reactors. This strategic investment further oversubscribes Radiant’s current financing round and adds decades of defense expertise to our team of investors and partners. Lockheed Martin's investment, combined with the almost half a billion dollars we raised last year, reflects our relentless focus on the mission and deepening confidence from both financial and strategic partners in our commercialization strategy. Today's news comes one week after our PDSA was approved by @ENERGY, six weeks since we became the first nuclear startup to generate electric power, seven weeks since we announced our Series D, two months since our first pressure vessel arrived at our headquarters in El Segundo, and a little over three months since we announced we'll build our first factory in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. All this comes ahead of startup of our first reactor this summer at @NRICnuclear's DOME facility at @INL.

Major congrats to @FortemTech on securing a multimillion-$$ order from @DHSgov to protect the 2026 @FIFAWorldCup! No surprise here: Fortem patrolled the skies over Qatar in 2022 at the last World Cup. Fortem's autonomous DroneHunters will be the silent guardians over 11 U.S. cities, keeping millions of fans safe using their unique net-capture technology. The future of airspace security is here!👇 🌎 ⚽ 🛡️ 🫡

.@DCVC-backed @valarlabs is launching Vitara, a new AI-derived test that uses routine pathology slides to help oncologists choose between FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel in pancreatic cancer. In validation data, patients matched to the predicted regimen lived ~3 months longer. More from @DCVC GP @hardimanjames in 🧵
