Vertical AI is already transforming industries, and here’s why 👇
Vertical AI is making waves with real-world impact, and recent commercial partnerships show how transformative this space can be. 🚀 Immunai secured an >$18M collaboration with AstraZeneca to leverage AI for efficient cancer drug trials, optimizing patient responses and cutting development costs. 🧬💊 Taranis teamed up with Syngenta in a multi-million dollar collaboration to deliver AI-driven crop health insights, helping farmers boost yields, manage resources more efficiently, and monetize on gov. incentives by significantly reducing their carbon footprint. 🌱🤖 These partnerships, both closed over the last month, underline why Vertical AI is compelling: 1. 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐥 𝐈𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐭: Vertical AI companies are driving genuine, positive change - focusing on traditional industries that have yet to significantly benefit from digital transformation. Healing cancer, feeding the world? Vertical AI is probably at play. 🌍 2. 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐬: The ACVs & TCVs are huge, reflecting the value these technologies bring and opportunities for deep collaborations. 💸 3. 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡 𝐌𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐬: Developing this kind of tech isn’t easy. Building robust AI models that deliver real results takes immense skill and innovation. 🧠🔒 4. 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐆𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬: Dancing with giants like AstraZeneca and Syngenta isn’t simple. Navigating those relationships, building trust, and proving value is as tough as it gets. 🤝🐘 Viola Ventures Zvika Orron Noam Solomon Opher Flohr Ofir Schlam
