🚨 The AI race is accelerating, but who’s really leading? Nations or corporations? 🌍 Governments are moving with unprecedented speed: the EU’s AI Act, the U.S.’s federal guidelines, Saudi Arabia’s $40B AI fund. Enterprises are embedding generative AI into R&D, customer service, and decision-making, unlocking 3–5x ROI when scaled beyond pilots. The tension between capital, compliance, and execution will define the next decade of innovation leadership. Plug and Play sits at the intersection of this race: where corporates, governments, and startups meet to shape how AI is adopted at scale. The real question is: who will set the pace — nation-states with regulation power, or enterprises with execution speed? https://pnptc.in/46BJyPc #AI

"Having the right partners that understand your business, believe in you and the vision, but also the ups and downs, is extremely important. We worked with a number of different funds, and we looked for different things, so working with Plug and Play has been super helpful in the reach, the enterprise go-to-market reach, and the network effects of that." - Mayada Gonimah, Thread AI Last week, we were excited to welcome Mayada Gonimah, co-founder of Thread AI, a Plug and Play Tech Center portfolio company, to our Fall 2025 Workshop Series designed for the founders in our program. Thread AI is transforming enterprise operations with Lemma, its AI orchestration and infrastructure enablement platform, which enables organizations to build secure, reliable AI workflows and agents for mission-critical tasks. During the session, Maya shared her founder journey, offering insights into shaping the Thread AI product, closing its enterprise customers, and how they've built a strong team and company culture while raising their Series A. A powerful and inspiring conversation that gave our founders a real-world look into what it takes to build and scale a venture-backed AI company.
