Fusion energy carries so much promise that folks outside of the industry are increasingly excited and investing this category ⚡ Bolstered by scientific breakthrough, and now entering a critical scaling and commercialization phase, teams like Marathon Fusion are leading the way thinking through core engineering hurdles such as fuel systems and more efficient fuel processing. I sat down with Collaborative Fund portfolio founder and CEO, Kyle Schiller, to chat more about how the fusion energy field is gaining momentum and the role they play within an increasingly coordinated ecosystem of start-ups. https://lnkd.in/dadbzyZh

What an incredible three days we’ve had at #BESummit24. The innovation, commitment, and optimism is something we’ll carry through the rest of the year and well into the future. Here are a few of our favorite moments from Thursday: - Mario Fernandez of the Catalyst Team laid out a guide for how to unlock capital in climate tech. - Secretary John Kerry sat down for an insightful conversation on the partnerships between private and public sectors: "I'm so excited about the potential of what you all can do. Because the key here is the private sector investment... that's what we have to achieve." - During a breakout session we learned more about how in order to stabilize our climate we’re going to need to revolutionize existing industries in addition to creating entirely new sectors. While we’ve made huge progress in scaling back emissions from the automotive industry, we have farther to go. We heard from pioneering innovators who are pioneering new ways to grow food and transport goods and humans around the globe. - Founder & President of The Earthshot Prize, his Royal Highness, Prince William helped close out the afternoon by reminding us what’s possible when innovators are given the freedom to take risks. - Finally, as #BESummit24 came to an end Rodi Guidero and Bill Gates urged all of us to be bold in our action as we strive towards a net-zero future.

Thank you Amanda!
#FusionIsHere :-) Fusion energy is the hardest, most capital intensive, and complex technology of the 21st century and one of the important breakthroughs of our lifetime. This week's Fusion event at SF Deep Tech Week covered leading technical approaches and strategies to continue the industry's growth. We heard fusion approaches from: Kyle Schiller, CEO at Marathon Fusion Darren Woulfe, Head of Magnet Business Commonwealth Fusion Systems David Gates, CTO at Thea Energy Robin Langtry, CEO at Avalanche Energy Derek Sutherland, Head of Fuze-Q Physics Zap Energy Andrea (Annie) Kritcher, Scientist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Designer of NIF shot (!) Alison Christopherson, Plasma Physicist at Xcimer Energy Corporation JC B. CEO at Fuse And policy, funding, and public-private partnerships perspectives from: Andrew Holland, CEO at Fusion Industry Association Sally Benson, Professor at Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability Ahmed Diallo, Director at ARPA-E Malcolm Handley, Fusion VC at Strong Atomics Thank you to everyone who attended.

Thanks to Activate for inviting Marathon to join their climate week panel!
Last week, we had a wonderful time at SF Climate Week, where we engaged with the hard-tech community right in Activate Berkeley’s own backyard. It was great to see this event reach peak impact, with thousands of people filling venues to convene around the most important topics with scientists, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and others. Here’s a glimpse of the sessions we hosted: 🌎 On Tuesday, we kicked off with a vibrant reception at 9Zero HQ, where over 400 people joined us for networking and conversations. The evening was a celebration of innovation and included a panel discussion on critical strategies for transforming the built environment to combat carbon emissions amidst economic challenges. Panelists included Activate Chief Fellowship Officer, Brenna Teigler, PhD ; Berkeley Lab Associate Lab Director, Energy Technologies Area Mary Ann Piette; Brimstone Founder Cody Finke, Ph.D. (Cohort 2019); and Calion Technologies Co-Founder Drew Lilley (Cohort 2023). 🌎 Thursday’s partnership event at 9Zero HQ with Anglo American’s Decarbonisation Ventures explored the dynamics of early-stage startup potential through corporate venture capital. The dialogue included perspectives from TDK Ventures, Khosla Ventures, and TechEnergy Ventures, among others, showcasing successful investment strategies and the importance of corporate support in scaling new technologies. 🌎 To close the week, we enjoyed mingling with the Activate community at the Autodesk Gallery event space. Each event provided insights and strengthened our community in advancing climate solutions. We’re energized by the emerging partnerships and ideas and are excited to continue driving change. Thank you to our event participants, partners, and community for making this week not just successful, but inspirational. #SFClimateWeek

We were pleased to welcome Marathon Fusion CEO Kyle Schiller to UKAEA recently. Kyle met with some of our talented researchers who were keen to learn more about Marathon’s ambitious plans for metal foil pump development. Thank you to Anatulio Tarazona and colleagues for hosting and giving a tour of our Tritium Fuel Cycle Division and Research Hall.
