All recorded activity

Intel Capital leads early-stage investments in AI and deep technology across cloud, devices, frontier technology and silicon, focusing on the intersection of software, hardware and computing.

The team works on technologies such as photonics, semiconductor systems, quantum computing and enterprise infrastructure. Its mandate centres on scalable, defensible computing technology rather than requiring a startup to be a conventional software business.

Portfolio development includes curated introductions to large corporate customers and access to Intel experts and consultants. These resources address technical commercialisation and enterprise adoption, including the engineering and customer relationships needed to take a new computing product to market.
