Rivercell Launches With $25 Million to Build Data Platforms and AI Models That Predict How Human Cells Respond to Treatment7.10.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release

Rivercell, a Paris-based biotechnology and AI company building its own data infrastructure on how human cells respond to any treatment and training a world model of the cell that can predict those responses, today announced a $25 million seed round led by HV. HCVC, Alven and Bpifrance Digital Venture also participated in the round, which will fund the scale-up of Rivercell’s proprietary data generation platform, the expansion of its wet lab in Paris (a lab working with chemicals and biological samples), and the launch of its AI Virtual Cell program.

NTT DATA Opens AI Factory Munich Where Clients Can Validate their AI in a Live Environment7.10.2026 16:00:00 EEST | Press release

NTT DATA, a global leader in AI, digital business and technology services, today opened the NTT DATA AI Factory Munich, a real-world environment where clients can test how their AI applications will perform at scale before they invest in broad deployments. Unlike a traditional AI demonstration or innovation lab, the AI Factory Munich operates within a live data center environment (NTT Global Data Centers' Munich 2 Data Center), allowing clients to evaluate AI workloads against the infrastructure, security, data, governance and operational requirements they will face in production. AI deployments typically stall between pilots that prove an idea and enterprise-scale production that delivers value. To bridge this gap, the AI Factory Munich leverages NTT DATA’s capabilities from consulting, infrastructure and AI platforms to managed services, data centers and its global partner ecosystem. Among active partners, NVIDIA provides an accelerated computing platform, including NVIDIA Blackwell
