Panthalassa builds self-propelled, autonomous floating nodes that capture wave energy to generate continuous clean electricity and run AI inference computing onboard, transmitting results to land via low-Earth-orbit satellites. The company has spent about a decade developing its power generation, propulsion, autonomy, and at-sea computing technologies and demonstrated capabilities with Ocean-1, Ocean-2, and Wavehopper prototypes in 2021 and 2024. Panthalassa plans to deploy its Ocean-3 pilot node series in the northern Pacific in 2026 to demonstrate AI inference at sea and to refine manufacturing ahead of commercial deployments in 2027. The platform uses the ocean for free supercooling to extend chip lifetimes and avoids transmitting power to shore by performing computing onboard. The company is a public benefit corporation headquartered in Portland, Oregon, and recently raised $140 million in a Series B to complete a pilot manufacturing facility and accelerate initial deployments.

Performance Drone Works (PDW) develops multi-mission aerial robotic systems and operates integrated manufacturing and testing capabilities. PDW combines engineering, flight testing, systems integration, production and fulfillment at Drone Factory 01, its 90,000-square-foot manufacturing facility in Huntsville, Alabama. The company plans to produce domestic components such as propulsion systems, power and control technologies and vision systems and to supply those components to other U.S. manufacturers. PDW aims to strengthen domestic supply chains for unmanned systems and reduce dependence on foreign-controlled components. The company expects the scale-up to initially meet defense requirements and potentially expand into public safety, industrial and commercial markets. Financially, PDW has a conditional loan commitment of up to $820 million from the U.S. Department of War’s Office of Strategic Capital and plans to combine that government financing with additional private capital; the commitment is subject to further due diligence and closing conditions.

RLWRLD is a physical AI company building robotics intelligence that collects and learns from on-site industrial data, enabling robots to understand their environments and make autonomous decisions. After completing initial technology verification, the firm is now running joint proof-of-concept (PoC) and RX (robotic transformation) projects with major Korean companies such as CJ Logistics and Lotte, and is expanding trials in Japan through partner Z Venture. Management states that real-world validation is critical and plans to officially release a robotics foundation model in the first half of 2026. Demand for its technology is rising amid East Asia’s labor shortages, driving interest from strategic partners that control large industrial sites. Financially, RLWRLD secured about US$15 million in a Seed 1 round and has now added roughly US$26 million in Seed 2 financing, bringing cumulative seed funding to approximately US$41 million. The fresh capital supports continued product development and broader global collaborations. Key backers include Headline Asia, CJ Logistics Corporation, Kakao Investment, LOTTE Ventures, Hanwha Asset Management, Mirae Asset·emart and Z Venture.
