Nexxa.ai Raises $4.4M to Bring Specialized AI to Heavy Industries

Andreesen Horowitz drove the round on the heels of Nexxa posting two straight quarters of 3x growth

The company was also selected for a16z’s Speedrun Badge 5

SUNNYVALE, Calif., July 21, 2025 Nexxa.ai, an AI-native company working to transform how industrial engineers operate in digital environments, today announced a $4.4 million pre-seed funding round. The round was driven by Andreesen Horowitz with participation from institutional investors Augment Ventures, Propeller Ventures, Plug and Play, Beat Ventures, SBI, Untapped Ventures, and Cross Atlantic Angels as well as angel investors Rick Berry and Pat McCarthy, among others. The company was also selected for Speedrun Badge 5, a16z’s elite accelerator for high-potential AI startups.

“Having worked in industrials for over a decade, I believe that there has never been a more critical time to invest in technology that can have a real impact on our infrastructure. Our goal is to build an AI approach that can understand and learn deeply technical operations from scratch,” said Philipp Wehn, co-founder and CEO of Nexxa. “We are excited to bring on this additional capital and institutional guidance to accelerate our AI development.”

Despite the explosion of enterprise software and AI solutions, more than 4 million industrial engineers worldwide still rely on fragmented, in-house developed software systems and manual processes to execute complex operations. Nexxa deploys specialized AI agents that integrate with their customers’ existing software like engineering tools or estimating systems. Nexxa’s AI agents understand the industrial engineering context and act autonomously or collaboratively – accelerating work without requiring any rip and replace.

“Nexxa is shaping the future of industrial engineering with an execution-focused approach to AI,” said Troy Kirwin, partner at a16z Speedrun. “The potential of Nexxa is enormous – and they are just getting started.”

The funds will be used to grow the company’s engineering resources and expand into more industries. Nexxa was also selected to participate in a16z’s Speedrun Badge 5, which provides the company with access to a16z’s AI ecosystem, infrastructure support and go-to-market expertise.

“Philipp brings a deep understanding of pain points for industrial businesses which existing solutions fail to address,” said Sonali Vijayavargiya, founder and managing partner at Augment Ventures. “We are backing Nexxa because they are not just automating tasks but also building intelligent systems that drive results in complex enterprise environments.” 

Nexxa was founded in May 2024 and has now posted two straight quarters of 3x growth in booked annual contract value (ACV) in 2025. Early adopters include Fortune 100 companies and midmarket firms, with Nexxa’s AI already driving measurable impact in their operational workflows.

“Nexxa demonstrates strong potential through its focus on AI for industrial engineering and its ability to connect with existing software systems,” said Mario Mattern, head of portfolio management, partnering and startups at Siemens Mobility. “This capability is highly relevant for our customers and partners, which is why Nexxa is part of the Siemens Xcelerator ecosystem.”

LeadStory Raises $2.75M Seed Round, Unveils Superior AI Video Search

LeadStory ASK answers user queries with highest-quality broadcast news clips as answers, addressing growing user concerns with AI hallucinations and out-of-date responses

NEW YORK, July 18, 2025 — LeadStory, the on-demand personalized news streaming platform redefining how news is consumed, today announced $2.75M in Seed funding along with the launch of its revolutionary AI video search functionality.

The round was led by Checker Media, founded by former VICE Media Global President Jesse Angelo and also included American Public Media Group’s Horizon Fund, along with follow-on investment from their pre-Seed investors, CP Ventures. This latest funding will enable the rollout of its AI functionality and expand on its now 10 million strong, global audience.

“The era of AI-powered search is here – but when it comes to video News, the results from the existing platforms are woeful,” said Jesse Angelo, CEO of Checker Media. “LeadStory has solved a critical and growing problem in the ecosystem by quickly getting people accurate answers from trusted sources.”

As AI becomes an integral part of people’s daily lives, persistent hallucinations—especially when it comes to news delivery—have been a hallmark of the current generation of models. According to the BBC, 51% of Gen-AI news-related outputs have “significant issues.” LeadStory is setting out to change that, replacing text-responses with licensed video from the world’s premier news brands to answer user questions.

“This solves the hallucination problem AI has been unable to fix when it comes to news answers,” said Cam Price, CEO and co-founder of LeadStory, a former television journalist. “Delivering the exact point in a broadcast news story to answer a user’s question means the response will always be from fact-checked, verified news sources ensuring users can trust the answer is real and not an AI hallucination”.

“We’re right at the start of a user-led movement to voice-activated, AI search. When it comes to surfacing video, we’re only getting started on what is possible with AI,” added LeadStory co-founder, former UpGuard software engineer Cheyne Wallace.

LeadStory leverages content partnerships with many of the world’s top media outlets, including CBS, CNBC, Reuters, and Euronews, to power its AI functionality.

LeadStory continues to solidify its position as the emerging AI-driven news platform and is already experiencing another high-growth year. The company’s popular FAST channels are available in a dozen markets on Samsung TV Plus and in North America on VIZIO. Earlier this year LeadStory was selected by Mercedes-Benz to power their in-car video news experience, the first step in their growing automotive business.

About LeadStory
LeadStory is an AI-powered, on-demand news streaming platform that delivers personalized video news tailored to individual user preferences. LeadStory partners with trusted publishers, to deliver multi-sourced, up-to-date news while giving users control over what they consume. Founded in 2021 by former Sky News journalist Cam Price and former UpGuard software engineer Cheyne Wallace, LeadStory is redefining how people engage with the news: personalized, trustworthy, and built for today’s audiences.

MITS Capital and Green Flag Ventures Made $1.5 Million Strategic Investment in Teletactica

KYIV, Ukraine and NEW YORK, July 18, 2025 Teletactica, a Ukrainian DefenseTech company developing jamming-resistant communication systems for contested environments, has secured investment from MITS Capital and Green Flag Ventures. New funding will support the company’s scaling of next-gen tactical communications for frontline deployment and European expansion.

MITS Capital, an investment group based in Kyiv and New York and focused on Ukrainian defense innovation, led the $1.5 million round. Previously, Teletactica, MITS Acceleration Program alumni, successfully secured a pre-seed funding round.

“MITS Capital’s relationship with Teletactica is strategic, and the company has passed all the steps of our process to date, which began with the Acceleration Program. We’ve watched the company exceed every technical and operational milestone since,” said Perry Boyle, CEO & Founding Partner at MITS Capital. “We are proud to continue supporting Teletactica’s growth as they help define the future of battlefield communications.”

Green Flag Ventures, a leading U.S. and Ukraine based venture firm specializing in Ukrainian dual-use, AI, and cyber technologies, joined in the round. 

“Teletactica exemplifies the kind of company we look for: strong team, powerful product, and the potential to dominate a large and critical market segment. The core team pivoted from the private sector and had the experience, skill, and knowledge to identify the frontline EW challenges and respond with unique, flexible, problem-solving solutions that are now being used by multiple units in Ukraine,” said Justin Zeefe, General Partner at Green Flag Ventures. Teletactica is expanding its product suite in Ukraine and already preparing to grow into Europe through sales and partnerships, he added.

Teletactica develops modular, secure communication hardware built for high electronic warfare (EW) and GPS-denied environments. Its flagship products include video and telemetry modems and antenna kits.

“We deliver battlefield-proven solutions where conventional systems fail”, said Eugene Zhebko, co-founder and CEO of Teletactica. All companies’ devices are built for low-latency data streams and offer five times better price-to-performance compared to radios manufactured in the EU and the US. Products maintain packet loss rates as low as 1% to 5%, even under heavy jamming.

“We offer resilience under jamming, real-time responsiveness, and large-scale deployability, at a cost that enables rapid mass adoption”, emphasized Anton Hetman, co-founder and CTO of Teletactica.

Teletactica’s hardware has a compact form factor and low power consumption, which makes it perfect for UAV drones, UGVs, and other small unmanned platforms. All solutions are designed for scalable production and support, keeping costs low enough to be deployed in numerous units, rather than being restricted to specialized and costly programs.

Teletactica’s hardware is already in use across Ukraine and is being adapted to NATO standards. “This is not theoretical tech; it’s saving equipment and people right now,” said Zhebko.

Teletactica is also a key resident of the Brave1 cluster, a platform created by the Government of Ukraine to promote collaboration between all stakeholders of the defense tech industry. MITS Capital and Green Flag Ventures acknowledge Brave1’s role in sharing expertise and creating a strong community within the Ukrainian defense tech industry.

Founded in 2024, MITS Capital LLC is a Kyiv– and New York-based investment group focused on funding Ukrainian defense innovations.

According to the latest Ernst & Young report, MITS Lightning Fund is currently the largest international investor in Ukraine’s DefenseTech ecosystem. As of July 2025, MITS Capital’s portfolio includes 11 companies.

SEMIFIVE Files for Pre-IPO Review on KRX

SEOUL, South Korea, July 17, 2025SEMIFIVE, a leading design solution provider and pioneer of platform-based custom silicon solutions, today announced that it has submitted its preliminary IPO application to the Korea Exchange (KRX), marking the official start of its listing process on the KOSDAQ. Samsung Securities and UBS are serving as joint lead underwriters.

Since its founding in 2019, SEMIFIVE has demonstrated rapid business growth, raising a total of KRW 240 billion from prominent investors including Pavilion Capital (a Temasek subsidiary), Mirae Asset Venture Investment, Korea Investment Partners, Korea Development Bank, and Doosan Tesna. In 2024, just five years after its establishment, the company recorded KRW 111.8 billion in annual revenue and posted the highest sales among Samsung Electronics’ official Design Solution Partners (DSPs) in the system semiconductor category.

SEMIFIVE’s core strength lies in its proprietary, reusable, and automation-driven System on Chip (SoC) design platform, which enables the company to cover the entire system semiconductor value chain—from chip design and mass production to the IP business. This integrated approach has enabled SEMIFIVE to establish a robust revenue pipeline across all stages of the value chain.

From the outset, SEMIFIVE has collaborated with leading Korean AI fabless companies such as FuriosaAI and Rebellions to co-design and mass-produce AI and high-performance Computing (HPC) chips, building a stable revenue base. The company has been actively expanding its customer base through projects with HyperAccel, Mobilint, and XCENA, while also accelerating international revenue growth through new design wins from customers in the U.S., China, and Japan.

In the IP domain, SEMIFIVE has secured a solid revenue stream through its wholly owned subsidiary Analog Bits, a global leader in low-power mixed-signal IP. Analog Bits supplies core IPs—such as clocking, sensors, and SERDES—to global foundries including TSMC, Samsung Foundry, and Intel. By integrating these IPs into its SoC platform with automated implementation, SEMIFIVE enhances design efficiency and differentiation.

With a global workforce of over 400 employees, SEMIFIVE has established regional hubs in the U.S., China, Japan, Vietnam, India, and the Czech Republic to strengthen local customer engagement and technical support. The company has also been actively expanding its R&D investment to enhance technological competitiveness and accelerating the development of ‘Premier’, a CPU chiplet platform based on Arm architecture, as an Arm Total Design Partner.

“As AI is applied across a wide range of industries, the demand for ASIC is growing rapidly,” said Brandon Cho, the CEO and co-founder of SEMIFIVE. “Our vision is to become The New Global Hub of Custom Silicon. We are committed to leading innovation in the next-generation ASIC market, playing a pivotal role.”

Blockskye Raises $15.8 Million to Overhaul Corporate Travel Infrastructure

Funding Round to be Leveraged as Blockskye Introduces New Payment Products and Expands its Global Presence to Meet Client Demand

BOSTON, July 17, 2025 — Blockskye, the global travel infrastructure company modernizing enterprise travel, today announced the closing of a $15.8 million funding round. The round was led by Blockchange and saw participation from United Airlines Ventures, Lightspeed Faction, Lasagna, Litquidity Ventures, Longbrook Ventures, KSV Global, and TFJ Capital. This financing advances Blockskye’s mission to revolutionize corporate travel and will enable the company to launch new payment products, expand into more international markets, and scale its internal team of technology experts and seasoned travel industry veterans.

Blockskye is transforming the $1.5 trillion corporate travel industry by replacing legacy, intermediary-dependent tech stacks with modern blockchain-based architecture. The company, who is partnered with travel titan KAYAK for Business, features an integrated platform that eliminates the opaque supply chain that has long plagued corporate travel, enabling users to reduce total travel costs by 14.5% while maintaining full transparency and control. Through its modern infrastructure layer and consumer-grade user interface, Blockskye automates booking, payment, and expense reporting with their flagship products BMAX and B360. Unlike traditional solutions that address singular pieces of the travel puzzle, Blockskye provides end-to-end service while giving clients clarity and control. The company has already earned the trust of leading enterprise clients including PwC, Diageo, and TripAdvisor, demonstrating the market need for streamlined travel management solutions.

“Corporate travel represents one of the last elements of enterprise operations still relying on outdated, intermediary-heavy infrastructure that lacks basic trust and transparency,” said Brook Armstrong, co-founder and co-CEO of Blockskye. “This funding will enable us to continue building a platform that delivers the direct supplier connections, real-time reconciliation, and financial transparency that modern enterprises demand—finally bringing corporate travel management into the digital age.”

With $33 million raised to date, Blockskye is well-positioned to scale and drive sustainable growth. This latest funding will accelerate Blockskye’s momentum in serving Fortune 500 clients and global suppliers. Blockskye is set to expand its proven technology, which already delivers meaningful results including an 84% reduction in agent spend and millions of dollars in recovered unused tickets through real-time ownership tracking. The funding will also support global expansion and grow the Blockskye team, fueling customer success.

About Blockskye
Blockskye introduces trust, transparency, and technology in a market that has lacked all three. Corporate travel is a $1.5 trillion industry riddled with non-value-add intermediaries that tax the market—adding layers of cost, complexity, and opacity. Blockskye replaces legacy booking, payment, and expense systems with modern, blockchain-based infrastructure that enables real direct supplier connections, real-time reconciliation, and ERP-integrated authorization flows.

Receive Raises Seed Round and Launches White-Labeled Titanium Boost Mastercard

NEW YORK, July 17, 2025 — Receive Raises Seed Round and Partners With Titanium Payments to Launch Titanium Boost Business Mastercard®, Unlocking Real-Time Revenue Access for SMBs.

Receive, a fintech startup democratizing financial access for small businesses, has emerged from stealth mode. 

The announcement coincides with a $4 million seed round led by NGVP, bringing their total funding to $7.1 million. Receive is supported by additional debt financing and is backed by leading investors, including Blank Ventures, Verissimo Ventures, Insight Partners, Corner Ventures, Clocktower Technology Ventures, and others. 

Receive was founded by fintech executive Ariel Blum, who previously held leadership roles at Melio, Green Dot, and American Express. Blum recognized the limitations of outdated financial systems in serving the needs of growing small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs). Fast-growing businesses were held back by delayed payouts, long settlement windows, high capital costs, and expensive credit that slowed momentum. According to SCORE, a U.S. Small Business Administration partner, 82% of small businesses fail due to cash flow issues. 

To address this challenge, Blum launched Receive—the first Earned Revenue Access platform—giving SMBs fast, flexible access to revenue they’ve already earned, without interest, credit checks, or traditional underwriting. By turning pending sales into spending power, Receive helps businesses reinvest sooner, operate more efficiently, and grow without debt.

Receive’s white-labeled partnership model empowers Independent Sales Organizations (ISOs), payment processors, software providers, and more, to leverage first-party data, unlock a new revenue stream, identify growth opportunities, deepen merchant relationships, and gain a competitive edge.

Receive has partnered with Titanium Payments to launch the Titanium Boost Business Mastercard®, bringing Earned Revenue Access to Titanium Payment’s network of small businesses. The Titanium Boost Business Mastercard, powered by Receive, converts pending settlements into real-time spending power for Titanium merchants. This reflects Receive’s mission to build a smarter, more flexible financial ecosystem that helps SMBs grow on their terms.

“From e-commerce to Main Street, cash flow is a universal challenge that limits growth. We recently supported a local mechanic who was struggling to scale because he was waiting on funds to settle before purchasing parts for upcoming jobs,” said Blum. “Delays or costly financing can severely disrupt progress. With Titanium Boost, businesses can access revenue on their terms, keeping operations running smoothly.”

To put control back in the hands of small businesses, Receive launched the SmartPay Calendar—a self-driving repayment tool that turns cash flow from a challenge into a competitive advantage. Merchants choose when to repay Receive, with the option to earn more spending power by paying early.

Receive is setting a new standard in financial management to help SMBs grow faster, operate smarter, and stay in control of their cash flow. 

About Receive

Receive is a U.S.-based financial technology company revolutionizing how small and medium-sized businesses manage cash flow. Backed by NextGen Venture Partners and leading investors, its Earned Revenue Access platform provides real-time access to revenue, enabling SMBs to operate with greater agility, flexibility, and financial control.

The Titanium Boost Business Mastercard is issued by Patriot Bank, N.A. (Member FDIC), under license from Mastercard International Incorporated, and is accepted anywhere Mastercard is accepted.
