Welcome to the frontier, Rial 🚀
We just invested in Rial, a company building the infrastructure to certify that an image is real at the moment of capture.
Most tools detect synthetic content after the fact. Rial intervenes at the origin.

The mining industry runs on billion-dollar decisions made on incomplete data. Until now, it was simply the constraint.
We wrote a full breakdown of Ab Astra, a new #portfolio company, and what the thesis looks like from our side of the table.

Meet our heroes 💪🏻
AI and longevity, two verticals where the science has to be real.
Backing them is part of it. Staying close as they build is the other part.

Welcome to the frontier, AbAstra! 🪨
Every critical minerals decision is still made on incomplete data. The subsurface has always been largely opaque. Ab Astra is changing that.
We're proud to participate in Ab Astra's $2M pre-seed round. 🚀

The hardest moment for a founder is not always technical.
Sometimes, it’s the moment they start wondering whether they’re seeing something others don’t, or whether they’re simply wrong.
In that moment, capital alone doesn’t solve the problem.

What changes a founder's state of mind isn't a check. It's someone who has seen the same story before and can say:
"I've been in this conversation. Others were exactly here and made it through”.
That's what a fund accumulates over time: context, memory, and pattern recognition.

At Draper Cygnus, we've spent over a decade backing deep tech when few others were.
As @TimDraper puts it: "Believe in the founder even when the founder stops believing in themselves."
That's what we work to provide when it matters most. And that's the real asset.

Meet Our Heroes. Meet some of the founders we back 💪🏻
From space and energy to agtech, they’re tackling some of the hardest problems in deep tech.
Backing them is only part of the job. Staying close as they build is what matters.

We’ve invested in Max Space, a new Draper Cygnus portfolio company 🚀
Max Space is building the foundational habitat layer for the next space economy, making permanent presence in orbit viable for the first time.

With the ISS retiring by 2030, orbital infrastructure becomes the bottleneck.
Led by Maxim de Jong, Aaron Kemmer, and Saleem Miyan, second-time founders with flight-proven tech, Max Space enables permanence, not just access.

Last Thursday we hosted one of our regular dinners with founders, LPs, and members of the DC Mafia. 🙌🏻
No rigid agenda. No deck. Just people building, backing, and thinking seriously about what comes next.

Everyone left with a copy of Breakfast with Pops by @AdamDraper.
Three generations of venture distilled into perspective, not formulas.
That’s what these dinners are about. The table compounds.

Martin Sajon, CEO of @q99ai, joined NYSE Floor Talk to explain what quantum computing actually does and why timing matters. Quantum isn’t theoretical. For the right problems, it’s already operational.

Q99 is applying quantum to real-world business challenges. In logistics, they reduced daily routes by 225 km for one client, cutting maintenance costs by 25% and extending vehicle lifetime by 15%.
Measurable impact. Not hype.

🛰️ Last year @SkyloomG was acquired by @IonQ_Inc (NASDAQ: IONQ). For us, this is more than an exit.
We invested the first check before commercial clarity existed. Before anyone in the region was having this conversation.

For founders in the region, Skyloom proves one thing: Latin American deep tech doesn't need to adapt to global standards. It can set them.

We just wrapped our #AnnualSummit2026 in San Francisco.
The DC Mafia in one room: founders, investors, and ecosystem builders having real conversations about where deep tech is going and who's building it.
See you at the next one! 🚀
