NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / September 10, 2025 / The history of economic growth is often told through waves of efficiency. The steam engine extracted more work from coal, electrification powered entire industries, and the microchip condensed computation into silicon. Each of these shifts delivered not just incremental improvement but an economy-wide dividend, where productivity gains fueled investment, competitiveness, and prosperity. Today, a new kind of efficiency is emerging, one rooted not in how fast we can consume but in how effectively we can reuse. It is the age of material efficiency, and SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is uniquely positioned and able to deliver it.

Material efficiency is more than recycling. It is the ability of countries and companies to recover value from the goods they already use, to prove the authenticity and recycled content of those goods, and to loop them back into the economy with confidence. That capability is not a fringe environmental issue.

It is becoming a macroeconomic driver that delivers cost savings, supply chain resilience, and investor favor. At a time when resource volatility and geopolitical uncertainty increasingly set the terms of trade, material efficiency represents a productivity revolution as profound as energy or data efficiency.

Turning Materials Into Data

SMX promotes this new era by turning materials into data. Its patented molecular markers are embedded directly into plastics, metals, textiles, and natural rubber, giving every item a scannable, tamper-resistant identity tied to a verified digital passport. That link follows goods from origin through use, recycling, and chemical transformation, proving recycled content, authenticity, and chain of custody in real time. The result is enforceable compliance, anti-counterfeiting, and true material efficiency that converts sustainability from promise to measurable value. For companies that adopt it, SMX’s platform creates the most valuable form of proof: proof that their supply chains are both sustainable and secure.

That promise has now moved from concept to infrastructure. In collaboration with Singapore’s national research powerhouse A*STAR, SMX has enabled the world’s first country-backed plastics passport program. This is not a pilot or a corporate initiative confined to a single product line. It is national policy that embeds molecular markers into plastics at the point of production, creating a verifiable passport that accompanies each material through its entire lifecycle. That is made even more powerful by SMX’s Plastic Cycle Token (PCT), a tradable instrument monetizing verified recycled inputs seamlessly across global markets. With Singapore leading the charge, the world is witnessing how material efficiency can be operationalized at scale, and how a nation can leverage it into a first-mover advantage.

The dividend is clear. For companies, being able to prove recycled content and chain of custody creates a compliance premium. Instead of treating regulation as a cost, proof becomes a tradable asset that protects brand equity, unlocks market access, and attracts ESG-oriented capital. For countries, the ability to reduce waste, lower import dependency, and strengthen domestic resource loops creates a resilience dividend. Every ton of plastic that is recovered and reused is one less ton imported, taxed, or lost to incineration. For investors, material efficiency signals an entirely new category of value creation, one that echoes the early days of carbon markets but with far more tangible proof and economic impact.

A Plastics Passport Blueprint

The Singapore model matters not just for its own borders but for what it represents regionally and globally. ASEAN alone generates a plastics market worth more than S$4.2 billion annually, much of it underserved by current recycling frameworks. By demonstrating a system that works, Singapore is providing a playbook for replication across the region and beyond. The architecture is not another set of voluntary pledges but a verified reporting system underpinned by SMX’s molecular technology. That makes it credible, scalable, and investable.

Material efficiency is not charity. It is productivity. Just as energy efficiency lowered costs for manufacturers and data efficiency unleashed the digital economy, material efficiency is poised to reshape the competitiveness of companies and countries. Those that can prove what they recover and reuse will enjoy lower costs, stronger supply resilience, and preferential access to capital. Those who cannot will fall behind. That is the nature of dividends: they reward those who position themselves early and compound over time.

SMX has positioned itself as both the enabler and the architect of this shift. By embedding proof at the molecular level, it is providing the rails on which entire markets can run. Singapore has provided the first national case study of what that looks like in practice. Together, they are demonstrating that material efficiency is not an aspiration but a system that delivers measurable dividends.

The lesson is simple but profound. Material efficiency is not about doing less. It is about getting more from what we already have. That shift redefines the growth equation for companies, investors, and, yes, nations. Singapore may be the first to prove it, but with SMX’s technology, it will not be the last. Those who understand the dividend will seize the advantage. Those who do not will be left paying the cost.

– Gemini normalized the inflammatory response at the cellular level in stage 3 and 4 CKD patients –

– Gemini could potentially revolutionize the treatment of acute and chronic inflammatory disease –

Data discussion webcast/conference call will be held at 8:30 am Eastern Time

SAN DIEGO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / September 10, 2025 / Revelation Biosciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:REVB) (the “Company” or “Revelation”), a clinical-stage life sciences company focused on rebalancing inflammation, will host a corporate update webcast/conference call (details below) at 8:30 am Eastern Time to review groundbreaking activity data from its Phase 1b PRIME clinical study in stage 3 and 4 chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. The primary endpoint to evaluate the safety and tolerability of escalating doses of Gemini was met.

More importantly, Gemini significantly reduced inflammatory activity and restored normal cellular response to stimuli as measured in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from patients at predose, 2, 24, and 168 hours post-dose, demonstrating Gemini’s ability to durably rebalance the inflammatory process at the cellular level.

“The activity observed with a single dose of Gemini in patients is shocking,” said Principal Investigator Adam Horeish, MD, Balboa Research. “This effect suggests a meaningful step forward in addressing the underlying immune dysregulation observed in patients with chronic kidney disease, and I am intrigued by the potential of Gemini to treat multiple types of acute and chronic inflammation.”

“The results from this Phase 1b study represent a possible breakthrough in the treatment of inflammation,” said Principal Investigator Pablo Pergola, MD, PhD,Research Director at Clinical Advancement Center, PLLC. “By addressing the inflammatory component of CKD, we may be able to improve patient outcomes and bring meaningful benefit to those living with this challenging condition. We look forward to working with the Revelation team to advance Gemini as a potential treatment for CKD.”

“The clear results from the PRIME study demonstrate the power of Gemini to elicit trained immunity,” said Julia K. Bohannon, Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Anesthesiology, Department of Pathology, Microbiology, and Immunology, Vanderbilt University Medical Center. “It is highly validating to see results consistent with the findings from our animal studies, as I would have expected. The strength of the effect of a single dose reinforces my confidence in the potential of Gemini as a promising treatment for burn patients.”

The PRIME study enrolled 40 patients from 32 to 78 years of age, at 3 US clinics located in San Diego and San Antonio, specializing in the care of patients with CKD. A total of 5 cohorts (8 patients per cohort, 6 treated/2 placebo) at 4 dose levels were enrolled: a subtherapeutic dose, a low dose, the target dose (cohorts 3 and 4), and a high dose – an extension protocol was conducted to collect additional PBMC and biomarker samples in 8 Gemini naive or secondary naive patients. The primary endpoint was evaluation of safety.

In addition to safety measures, patient PBMCs were isolated predose and at 2, 24, and 168 hours post-dose. PBMCs were analyzed ex vivo for background inflammation by measurement of IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-10, and IL-1RA. Cells were also assessed for response to stimulation by lipopolysaccharide (LPS, also known as endotoxin) or high mobility group box-1 protein (HMGB1). Subgroup analysis divided patients into two categories, those with PBMCs of minimal background inflammation activity (£40 pg/mL IL-1β) and normal response to stimuli, and those with significant background inflammation activity (>40 pg/mL IL-1β) and no response to stimuli. Approximately 50% of patients were in each group.

In patients with high background PBMC activity, Gemini significantly reduced inflammation relative to placebo patient PBMCs post dose (IL-1β: p0.01; TNF-α: p=0.05; IL-6: p0.01; IL-10: p0.01; IL-1RA: p0.001) and remained significantly below their baseline value through 7 days. Background inflammation was reduced to levels comparable to PBMCs isolated from healthy subjects.

Additionally, Gemini was able to demonstrate correction of the immunoparalysis typical to chronic disease. Gemini significantly increased the responsiveness to LPS stimulation in high background patient PBMCs relative to placebo at all timepoints (IL-1β: p0.0001; TNF-α: p0.002; IL-6: p0.0002; IL-10: p=0.09; IL-1RA: p0.01). Gemini also significantly increased the responsiveness of patient PBMCs with high background vs placebo patient PBMCs with high background at all time-points to HMGB1 stimulation (IL-1β: p0.05; TNF-α: p0.01; IL-6: p0.01; IL-10: p0.05; IL-1RA: p0.002). The increased responsiveness was comparable to PBMCs isolated from healthy subjects. These results show the ability of Gemini to restore normal cell function, even as far as one week after a single dose.

For the low background patients, as expected, Gemini does not increase inflammatory activity. Additional analysis on the effect of LPS or HMGB-1 stimulation is ongoing.

Gemini administration was well-tolerated at the target dose (established as the maximum tolerated dose in healthy volunteers) with all events reported as mild (Grade I). Adverse events observed at the target dose included transient headache, chills, loose stool, and body aches. Three adverse events at the highest dose (above the target dose) were reported as severe (Grade III), and included chills, nausea and vomiting, all resolving in 3 hours or less. Other reported events were either mild (Grade I) or moderate (Grade II). All events corresponded with the previous healthy volunteer study, as well as with preclinical findings, and are consistent with the expected pharmacology of the drug. No serious adverse events were reported. Gemini administration did not result in clinically significant trends in clinical safety blood or urinalysis parameters (aside from expected immune cell mobilization). There were no clinically significant changes or trends in vital sign parameters or ECG assessments following administration of Gemini.

“The results of the PRIME study demonstrate the potential of Gemini to be a game-changer in the treatment of acute and chronic inflammation,” said James Rolke, Chief Executive Officer of Revelation. “We look forward to our scheduled End of Phase 1 meeting with the FDA later this year to discuss the advancement of this exciting program.”

The webcast at 8:30 am Eastern Time can be accessed https://www.webcaster4.com/Webcast/Page/3139/52906, or to call in, please dial 888-506-0062 (toll free in the US), +1 973-528-0011 (if International) and use participant access code 289672.

Revelation will seek to publish these results and those from ongoing additional data analysis. For more information, please visit www.RevBiosciences.com.

About CKD

Chronic kidney disease is a pervasive problem in the United States and world-wide. CKD is due to chronic inflammation and can be initiated and propagated in several ways. One prevalent condition is the high blood sugar levels associated with diabetes (either Type 1 or Type 2). High blood sugar is toxic to kidney cells creating stress which imitates the inflammatory process leading to the demise of these cells with subsequent fibrosis, ultimately resulting in continuous loss of kidney function over time. High arterial blood pressure is another source of stress that initiates the inflammatory process leading to CKD. Other risk factors include heart disease, obesity, family history of CKD, or advanced age. Progression of chronic kidney damage often leads to end stage renal disease with the need for renal replacement therapy (dialysis or transplantation), resulting in significant morbidity and mortality for affected patients. Kidney disease is a leading cause of death in the United States.

New Maxon Capabilities Across Every Creative Discipline

For animators and motion graphics designers, Cinema 4D enables fast, unified simulations that are easy to create and art-direct. All the procedural power of C4D integrates seamlessly with rigid-body, soft-body, cloth, pyro, particles, and now liquids. The new AI search, which operates entirely on your local machine, makes finding Capsules, assets, textures, and presets effortless, with faster and more precise results ready in an instant.

For game developers and virtual production teams, the latest Cineware for Unreal Engine streamlines asset, lighting, and material workflows, reducing rework and accelerating iteration. Support for Cinema 4D modifiers, enhanced texture tag controls, and automatic material instance creation keep scenes accurate and flexible from import to final output, empowering teams to focus on worldbuilding, not pipeline roadblocks.

For sculptors and 3D modelers, ZBrush adds creative freedom on desktop and iPad. Python scripting, available on desktop, unlocks automation and deeper pipeline integration, while 3D printing tools bring full desktop parity to the iPad. Surface Noise also sees an upgrade with a refreshed UI, per-noise resets, alpha transforms, and full undo/redo support, giving artists greater control over detail. ZBrush for iPad UI enhancements let users move the bottom bar, adjust the modifier wheel, and save or share custom interfaces for a personalized setup. Artists can rapidly sculpt, customize, and export designs for collectibles, props, and prototypes, with upcoming UV editing and hard-surface modeling updates extending its versatility.

For VFX artists, Redshift introduces new tools for photorealistic and stylized environments with greater realism and speed. Texture Displacement delivers faster, interactive previews with minimal subdivision; Scene Units ensure materials match real-world scale; and the new Procedural Clouds and Sun & Sky system make it effortless to add atmospheric depth to any scene. Artists can render more accurate, visually rich worlds in less time, whether for film, advertising, or immersive media.

For editors and colorists, Maxon Studio now supports embedded assets and reusable Capsules, making it possible to build once and use anywhere. This means more customization, faster setup, simple scaling, and consistent brand visuals, all without leaving the creative environment.

“For my new film ‘SKETCH’ (out now in theaters!), we sculpted creatures in ZBrush, animated in Cinema 4D, rendered in Redshift, and polished with Red Giant, all without ever feeling like we were duct-taping workflows together. Every production throws curveballs, but knowing exactly how I could ‘fix it in post’ with Maxon tools eliminated many of the usual roadblocks that inevitably come up when you’re creating 11+ monsters made out of glitter, chalk and crayons,” said Seth Worley, Director of “SKETCH” (read more about how Seth and team brought the film’s monsters and effects to life). “I think I can say definitively that, without Maxon One, we would still be finishing the movie.”

SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY, CA / ACCESS Newswire / September 10, 2025 / Dateline Resources Limited (ASX:DTR)(OTCQB:DTREF) (Dateline or the Company), a North American-focused mining and exploration company, is pleased to announce that it has commenced a major drilling campaign at its 100%-owned Colosseum Gold-REE Project in San Bernardino County, California.

Highlights

• Drilling Underway – Drilling has commenced this week at the 100%-owned Colosseum Gold-REE Project in California.

• Expanded Drill Fleet – Major Drilling has been contracted to provide a high-powered, fast reverse circulation (RC) rig, supplementing Dateline’s fleet of three company-owned drill rigs (two currently on site) and significantly boosting drilling speed and capacity.

• Large-Scale Campaign – The total drilling program is expected to exceed 10,000 metres of combined RC and diamond drilling, with activities anticipated to continue through the remainder of 2025.

• New Gold & REE Targets -Recently identified magneto-telluric (MT) generated gold and rare earth element targets are being refined and will be progressively incorporated into the drilling plan. These include multiple high-priority gold targets (breccia pipe anomalies) and deep REE targets identified by geophysical surveys.

• Geotechnical Program – A dedicated geotechnical drilling program is underway in parallel, gathering critical data to inform mine planning and support BFS-level engineering studies.

• Accelerating BFS – The program will accelerate the Colosseum BFS, with drilling data to support mine design and resource upgrades aimed at expediting the timeline to first gold production.

Drilling started this week and will include extensional gold drilling around the existing 1.1 Moz gold resource, as well as testing new regional targets. This campaign represents a pivotal step in advancing the Bankable Feasibility Study (BFS) and is aimed at accelerating Colosseum’s development toward near-term gold production.

To maximise efficiency and drilling throughput, Dateline is augmenting its on-site drill fleet. While the Company currently has two owned drill rigs at Colosseum, it has opted to deploy one of its own diamond drill rigs and supplement it with a high-performance reverse circulation (RC) rig provided by Major Drilling, the world’s leading provider of specialized drilling services in the metals and mining industry.

The contracted RC rig is being mobilised to site in the next 1-2 weeks and offers faster drilling rates, allowing the Company to rapidly progress both mineral resource-definition drilling and exploration of new targets in tandem. In addition to mineral resource drilling, a geotechnical drilling program has commenced, which will collect essential data on rock stability and ground conditions to feed into mine design and planning for the BFS.

The drilling plan will also progressively test several new exploration targets for gold and rare earths. These targets have been generated from recent exploration datasets, including a 3D magneto-telluric (MT) geophysical survey and detailed geochemical and mapping programs. Notably, the Company has identified six high-priority gold target areas (interpreted as potential breccia pipe structures) exhibiting similar geophysical signatures to the known gold-bearing pipes at Colosseum.

Additionally, multiple deep-seated resistivity anomalies pointing to possible carbonatite-hosted REE mineralisation (analogous to the nearby Mountain Pass mine) have been delineated. Ongoing analysis of the MT and geochemical results is refining these targets, which will be added to the drill schedule as they are confirmed and ranked. By pursuing gold and REE exploration in parallel, Dateline aims to unlock Colosseum’s dual commodity potential efficiently and enhance the project’s overall economics.

The total drilling program is expected to exceed 10,000 metres of RC and diamond drilling. This extensive campaign, one of the largest undertaken at Colosseum, is scheduled to run through at least the end of 2025. Drilling results will be reported as they become available and will feed directly into the Colosseum BFS workstreams, including a potential updated Mineral Resource estimate and open-pit mine designs.

Dateline’s Managing Director, Stephen Baghdadi, commented:

“This is an exciting phase for Dateline as we kick off a major drill program at Colosseum, which is instrumental in accelerating our feasibility study and bringing us closer to production. By utilizing our in-house diamond rig alongside Major Drilling’s high-powered RC rig, we can significantly increase the pace and scope of drilling, allowing us to tackle mineral resource infill, extensional drilling, and new target testing all at once.

“The ability to drill more metres faster will fast-track the Colosseum BFS and shorten the timeline to first gold production. We’re also eager to drill the newly identified gold and rare earth targets, which have the potential to add substantial value.“

Uber accelerates incident detection, DCAI speeds up AI training and cluster efficiency, and Nebius improves MTBF in large-scale distributed AI training-all powered by Clockwork’s first-of-a-kind Software-Driven-Fabric.

PALO ALTO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / September 10, 2025 / Clockwork, the company redefining how enterprises run large-scale AI infrastructure, today announced FleetIQ, a first-of-its-kind Software-Driven Fabric (SDF) built to maximize GPU utilization, accelerate AI job performance, increase infrastructure reliability, and cut infrastructure waste. The launch marks a strategic expansion that extends Clockwork’s Cloud capabilities-sub-microsecond visibility and cluster performance acceleration-into the AI and GPU domain, while adding stateful fault tolerance to prevent AI job crashes and slowdowns.

By transforming idle silicon into productive intelligence, Clockwork’s FleetIQ empowers enterprises, neoclouds, and hyperscalers to unlock greater performance from the same GPUs-delivering AI that is faster, more reliable, energy-efficient, and economically sustainable. This first-of-its-kind technology has attracted strong industry support. Led by existing investor NEA, Clockwork closed a new funding round at four times the valuation of its previous raise just two years ago. The round welcomed distinguished new backers, including Intel CEO Lip-Bu Tan, former Cisco CEO John Chambers, venture pioneer Carl Ledbetter, and e& Capital. Underscoring this momentum, the company appointed industry veteran Suresh Vasudevan as Chief Executive Officer and Joe Tarantino as Vice President of Worldwide Sales.

As AI moves from research to production, the bottleneck has shifted from raw compute to communication-between GPUs, across clusters, and across clouds. Most training jobs today run on NVIDIA or AMD GPUs with NVLink, InfiniBand and RoCE networks, but the challenge is universal: large GPU fleets must stay perfectly synchronized, and if even one link lags, the entire job pauses. In practice, this leads to what’s known as the “AI efficiency gap.” Despite massive investment, real-world GPU clusters achieve only ~30-55% of their theoretical performance, with further losses from disruptive faults and link failures occurring multiple times a week in large-scale systems. At scale, the cost of this inefficiency is staggering. Training today’s largest foundation models on a 100,000-GPU cluster-a $5-7 billion investment-can waste more than $2.25 billion in unused capacity. Closing this gap is now one of the defining challenges in scaling AI.

FleetIQ, Clockwork’s Software-Driven Fabric, directly addresses this challenge. Cofounded by Yilong Geng, Deepak Merugu and their PhD supervisor Professor Balaji Prabhakar, Clockwork’s foundational technology-software-based highly accurate Global Clock Sync and Dynamic Traffic Control-was developed at Stanford. FleetIQ leverages this foundation and delivers microsecond-level visibility across fleets and workloads to rapidly pinpoint slowdowns and failures. It adds stateful fault tolerance that keeps jobs running when links fail, avoiding costly AI job restarts; and boosts throughput with real-time, path-aware routing that eliminates contention and congestion. FleetIQ is hardware-agnostic, running across heterogeneous environments-NVIDIA, AMD, and custom accelerators; NCCL and RCCL; InfiniBand and Ethernet/RoCE-on-prem or in the cloud. The result: faster AI jobs and consistently high cluster utilization.

“AI has become the most distributed and demanding application in human history, and the next decade of AI infrastructure will belong to those who master communication between GPUs, between clusters, and clouds. Communication is the new Moore’s Law: the defining constraint to overcome for scale. At Clockwork, we are pioneering a Software-Driven Fabric (SDF)-an intelligent abstraction layer between workloads and infrastructure-that observes, predicts, and controls in real time, dynamically aligning application requirements and fabric behavior. This is not just a technical breakthrough. It enables organizations to achieve more with the same infrastructure. FleetIQ will make AI more economically viable for the decade ahead.”

– Suresh Vasudevan, CEO, Clockwork

“As AI infrastructure scales to tens of thousands of GPUs for training and inference, the bottleneck has shifted from compute to communication. With accelerators running in lockstep, a single link flap, congestion spike or straggler can stall progress and crater utilization. The operational priority is utilizing real-time fabric visibility for faster fault isolation and recovery to keep workloads moving instead of looping through costly restarts. And as Mixture of Experts (MoE) models with high rank expert parallelism proliferate, the all-to-all exchange intensifies, raising the bar even higher for GPU communication efficiency.”

– Dylan Patel, Founder, CEO, and Chief Analyst, SemiAnalysis

FleetIQ improves overall cluster efficiency by extending end-to-end visibility and control across both CPU-driven front-end and GPU-powered back-end networks. This enables teams to run training, inference and user-facing applications concurrently on the same cluster, improving economics, shortening time-to-market, and simplifying operations. FleetIQ works across Ethernet, InfiniBand, and RoCE, supports heterogeneous GPU environments, and requires no proprietary hardware.

Clockwork’s impact is already being felt by enterprises like Uber:

“At Uber, we tackle real-time logistics problems where every millisecond matters-latency spikes don’t just hurt customer experience, they directly impact driver retention and revenue. In our tests across a hybrid, multi-cloud environment, Clockwork delivered significant coverage and accuracy improvements over networking observability. Their unique innovation can greatly help Uber expedite the detection and fault-localization of networking issues: from hours to minutes, which will greatly improve service tail latency and prevent noisy neighbor impact.

We are in the process of rolling out Clockwork across Uber infrastructure, and look forward to experiencing their full capabilities at Uber’s scale. Clockwork’s software-driven fabric provides foundational observability for the hybrid, multi-cloud environment, helping us deliver what matters most: improved infrastructure utilization, enhanced resiliency, and ultimately, a better experience for the millions of people who rely on our platform every day.”

– Albert Greenberg, Chief Architect Officer, Uber

A vendor-neutral fabric for neocloud and enterprise AI at scale

As countries invest in sovereign, sustainable AI infrastructure, FleetIQ provides a hardware-agnostic control layer that raises cluster reliability and availability, delivering faster service for providers and better experiences for end users-making Clockwork a strategic design partner for neoclouds and enterprises.

“We have been working with Clockwork to evaluate their software-driven fabric on our AI infrastructure, and seeing meaningful improvements in reliability. This is exactly what our customers need when running large-scale AI workloads where any disruption can be costly. We like how this approach works across different network configurations without requiring hardware lock-in. As we continue to scale our infrastructure, solutions that focus on the communication layer-which is often a bottleneck-are becoming increasingly important for delivering the performance and reliability that our customers expect.”

– Danila Shtan, CTO, Nebius

“At NScale, we are building the foundation for AI at planetary scale-making it faster, more efficient, and more resilient for the world’s most ambitious organizations. To do that, we seek partners who share our vision for redefining what’s possible. Clockwork’s approach aligns perfectly with ours, and together we’re creating an AI infrastructure that is not only powerful and reliable, but ready to support the most demanding innovations of the future.”

– David Power, CTO, NScale

“At WhiteFiber, Clockwork helps us deploy GPU clusters faster and with greater consistency. Their observability and rapid localization of fabric issues not only reduce deployment times but also validate the reliability of our infrastructure, ensuring clients’ AI workloads run on clusters built for performance, resilience and scale.”

– Tom Sanfillippo CTO, White Fiber

Other European validation includes DCAI, operator of Gefion, Denmark’s flagship AI supercomputer:

“Our mission at DCAI is to remove barriers to high-performance AI infrastructure-not only to serve researchers, startups, and enterprises today, but also to build the sovereign foundations of tomorrow’s innovation economy. Gefion is a game-changing resource driving breakthroughs in quantum computing, drug discovery, advanced weather forecasting and beyond. To succeed, we must deliver resilience, reliability and efficiency at an unprecedented scale-performance once reserved for hyperscalers. Partnering with Clockwork enables us to operate Gefion seamlessly and reliably, even as workloads and demands increase.

The result is a compute-efficient, fault-tolerant infrastructure that researchers and industries can trust-lowering costs, eliminating wasted GPU cycles, and helping us deliver a sovereign AI capability second to none.”

– Dr. Nadia Carlsten, CEO, DCAI

Notable industry validation

“At Broadcom, our focus has always been on delivering Ethernet-centric infrastructure that scales AI with both performance and efficiency. Clockwork’s software-driven fabric adds an essential layer of agility and observability that enhances the power of our silicon. With proactive fleet monitoring and seamless failover, Clockwork enables platforms such as our Tomahawk 6 and Jericho4 to realize their full potential in flexibility, uptime, and AI performance. Together, we’re driving open, adaptable fabrics that allow enterprises to build AI infrastructure that is resilient, high-performing, and future-ready.”

– Ram Velaga, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Core Switching Group, Broadcom

“MI350X series systems with ROCm software and Pollara NICs provide a strong foundation for performance and reliability in AI training and inference. As deployments expand, ecosystem innovation, such as Clockwork’s software-driven approach, adds complementary capabilities that help ensure efficiency and consistency at scale.”

– Vamsi Boppana, SVP, AI, AMD

Clockwork’s launch of FleetIQ is paired with seasoned leadership to scale the new category. Suresh Vasudevan joins as CEO, a trusted technology leader with a track record of category creation and IPO-scale growth. He built Nimble Storage from $0 to $500M in revenue and an IPO, grew Sysdig from $5M to over $100M in ARR and into a category leader in container and cloud security, and served as Chief Product Officer at NetApp. “I am excited Suresh has joined us as CEO. He brings an exceptional combination of go-to-market leadership and product building experience required to scale entirely new categories, positioning Clockwork to enter its next phase of hypergrowth-delivering enterprise-grade, scalable infrastructure that meets the demands of the next generation of AI workloads,” said Balaji Prabhakar.

The company has also appointed Joe Tarantino as Vice President of Worldwide Sales-a proven sales leader instrumental in scaling Cohesity’s growth who, most recently, served at GMI Cloud, a top 10 NVIDIA neocloud partner-underscoring Clockwork’s strategic value. “While at GMI Cloud, I witnessed the explosive growth of enterprise AI and how quickly customers were consuming GPUs,” said Tarantino. “Clockwork helps them accelerate those investments by optimizing performance and resilience, and by taking AI initiatives from prototype to production faster.”
