France’s Quobly Raises €115M to Bring Silicon Quantum to Market
📅 - Quantum startup Quobly has raised €115 million to move its silicon-based quantum computers from laboratory validation toward commercial deployment, with a first cloud-accessible system planned for late 2026. The French company is leaning on semiconductor manufacturing partners and state-backed capital, a sign that quantum computing is increasingly being treated as industrial infrastructure, not distant research anymore for Europe now.
The Series A is large by European deeptech standards, but the more interesting part is who showed up. Bpifrance, SEALSQ and STMicroelectronics are leading the round, joined by the European Innovation Council Fund, Blast, ALIAD, Air Liquide's venture arm, and [...][...

📅 - Trump Seeks Early AI Model Access as Cyber Risks Rise - President Donald Trump is asking leading American AI companies to give federal agencies early access to their most capable models for cybersecurity testing, marking a notable retreat from the administration's hands-off posture toward AI oversight. The order is voluntary, at least formally, but it inserts Washington into the release cycle of frontier systems before they reach customers.
The new executive order tells agencies including Treasury, Defense, Commerce and Homeland Security to work with AI developers on pre-release cybersecurity reviews. The review window is expected to run up to 30 days. Not long by government standards. Potentially awkward by frontier-AI standards, where model [...]
📅 - Submer Launches Rubix With 8GW AI Data Center Portfolio - Submer Group has launched Rubix Data Centers, a new global platform led by John Eland to develop and operate AI data center campuses across an initial powered land portfolio exceeding eight gigawatts. The move extends Submer beyond cooling and neocloud services into site development, delivery, and operations for hyperscale AI buyers worldwide amid capital and power constraints.
The announcement says something about where the AI infrastructure market is going. Not toward one clean category. Toward vertical integration.
Submer is best known for immersion and advanced cooling technology for high-density workloads. It already moved into neocloud through inferX in late 2025. Now it is adding [...]
📅 - Snowflake Reports Claude Growth After $6B AWS Commitment - Snowflake used Summit 26 to spotlight enterprise uptake of Anthropic's Claude inside Cortex AI, days after disclosing a $6 billion AWS infrastructure commitment that changes the economics behind the story. One development is about governed model access. The other is about cloud capacity, procurement leverage, and the cost base of putting agents into production at scale securely.
The timing is the point. Snowflake did not announce the AWS spending at the event itself. It arrived just before, giving the Anthropic update a heavier frame than a partner momentum release would normally carry.
Claude inside Cortex AI tells customers they can run Anthropic's models closer to the data they [...]
📅 - Cisco Unveils Cloud Control for Agentic Infrastructure Teams - Cisco has unveiled Cloud Control at Cisco Live in Las Vegas, positioning it as a unified operating layer for networks, security, compute, observability and collaboration as enterprises prepare for AI agents to help run infrastructure. The platform gives Cisco a broader control plane story but also raises questions about governance, interoperability and trust under pressure at scale globally.
Cisco is making a familiar argument in a more urgent form: enterprise infrastructure is becoming too complex, too distributed and too fast-moving for human operators using separate dashboards, ticket queues and escalation paths. Cloud Control is Cisco's attempt to collapse that fragmentation into one [...]
📅 - Astera Labs Expands Taiwan Lab to Speed Global AI Rack Deployment - Astera Labs is expanding its Taiwan operations and Cloud-Scale Interop Lab as AI infrastructure buyers demand faster validation of rack-scale systems before deployment. The move brings Astera's connectivity engineering closer to platform vendors and Taiwan ODMs, underscoring how AI capacity now depends as much on integration speed as silicon availability and manufacturing scale for hyperscalers globally today.
The expansion is not just a regional office story. It sits inside a much larger bottleneck. AI labs, cloud providers and hyperscalers are trying to bring training and inference capacity online at a pace that traditional server qualification processes were not designed to support. [...]
📅 - Anthropic Expands Mythos Access to 200 Security Partners - Anthropic has expanded Project Glasswing to nearly 200 organizations, giving selected companies and public-sector bodies controlled access to Claude Mythos Preview for cybersecurity testing. The move turns a narrow AI safety effort into a broader defensive program, as software vendors, infrastructure operators and governments confront models that can find vulnerabilities faster than humans can respond at scale.
The expansion changes the shape of Project Glasswing. What began as a partnership of roughly 50 organizations is now becoming a more structured cyber coalition, with access widened to about 200 participants. Anthropic is not throwing the doors open. Participants must meet security [...]
