General Catalyst led a $32m Series A funding round in PhysicsX.

General Catalyst, a US-based venture capital firm that makes early-stage and growth investments, led a $32m Series A funding round in PhysicsX, an AI platform to create and run simulations for engineers working on project areas like automotive, aerospace and materials science manufacturing, with participation from Standard Investments, NGP, Radius Capital and Henry Kravis. “Engineering design processes were transformed by numerical simulation and the availability of high-performance compute infrastructure. The move from numerical simulation to deep learning represents a similar leap and will unlock new levels of product performance and ways of practicing engineering itself. PhysicsX exists to help pioneer and enable that transformation, giving engineers and manufacturers superpowers in bringing new technologies to the real world," Robin Tuluie, PhysicsX Founder and Co-CEO.
