(Reuters) -TensorWave, a Las Vegas-based startup, announced on Wednesday that it has secured $100 million in the latest funding round, as it aims to capitalize on the rapidly expanding AI infrastructure market.
The company, however, did not disclose the valuation at which the funding was raised.
The Series A funding round was led by Magnetar and AMD Ventures along with participation from existing partners, including Maverick Silicon and Nexus Venture Partners, and new investor Prosperity7.
With the growing demand for AI computing resources, companies such as TensorWave are emerging as key players by offering the tools and infrastructure required to efficiently train AI models and optimize workloads.
"The funding comes at a time when the AI infrastructure market is experiencing unprecedented growth, with recent industry reports projecting the AI infrastructure market to exceed $400 billion by 2027", the company said.
With the latest fundraise, the startup plans to scale operations, expand its team and accelerate the deployment of AMD-powered GPU clusters tailored for AI model training.
"This $100M funding propels TensorWave's mission to democratize access to cutting-edge AI compute," said TensorWave CEO Darrick Horton.

Gold holds steady as markets eye US-China trade talks

Gold prices were steady on Tuesday as market participants awaited developments from the second day of U.S.-China trade talks in London, while a stronger dollar limited potential gains. Spot gold held its ground at $3,330.46 an ounce, as of 0648 GMT. U.S. gold futures were also flat at $3,350.30. The dollar index strengthened 0.2% against its rivals, making gold less affordable for other currency holders. The trade talks between the world's two largest economies encompass issues ranging from tariffs to restrictions on rare-earth metals. "With U.S.-China trade talks still in the works, gold is trading reservedly until we see any progress is made between the two global superpowers," said Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade. U.S. President Donald Trump said his administration was "doing well" in the negotiations. Last month, both sides agreed to a temporary pause in tariffs against each other, offering some relief to financial markets. Data from China showed export growth slowed to a three-month low in May as U.S. tariffs affected shipments, while factory-gate deflation worsened to its deepest level in two years. Meanwhile, U.S. inflation data, due on Wednesday, could give investors more guidance on the U.S. Federal Reserve's monetary policy path. "If CPI has ticked marginally higher, that would be an expected result, but if it jumps, then that could raise some alarm bells for investors, and any resulting flight to safety could help the gold price," Waterer said. Gold typically gains appeal during periods of geopolitical and economic uncertainty, and it tends to perform well in low-interest-rate environments. Elsewhere, spot silver was down 0.5% at $36.55 per ounce, platinum eased 0.4% to $1,211.90, while palladium slipped 0.8% to $1,066.28. - Reuters
