AI Infra Startup Flam Raises USD 14 Mn Series A from RTP Global
The fresh funds will be used to expand globally, strengthen its Asian presence, scale infrastructure, develop new products, and launch a GenAI-powered enterprise suite for mixed reality (MR) tools.

AI infrastructure startup Flam has raised USD 14 million in a Series A funding round led by RTP Global, with participation from Dovetail and other strategic investors. This brings the San Francisco- and Bengaluru-based startup's total funding to USD 22 million since its founding in 2021.
The fresh capital will be deployed to expand operations across North America, Europe, and the Middle East, while strengthening Flam's presence in Asia. The funds will also support infrastructure scaling, new product development, and the launch of a full-stack enterprise suite focused on GenAI-powered mixed reality (MR) tools.
Founded by BITS Pilani alumni Shourya Agarwal, Malhar Patil, and Amit Gaiki, Flam is building foundational infrastructure that allows real-time 3D and MR experiences to be delivered directly to users without app downloads or redirects, with latency under 300 milliseconds.
"Series A capital brings in laser focus to ship the GenAI tool-chain that brands and enterprises have been begging for—an enterprise suite across channels to make experiences engaging, measurable, and interactive," said Shourya Agarwal, Co-founder and CEO of Flam.
Flam's upcoming offerings include automated 3D asset generation, a self-serve publishing platform for MR content, an integrated advertising suite, and analytics dashboards. These tools are tailored for use across retail, sports, broadcast, and live events.
The company's platform is already used by over 100 major brands, including Google, Samsung, Emirates, Dabur, AJIO, Flipkart, and Tanishq, and has even been deployed in high-stakes political campaigns like the US Presidential Elections. Flam's technology enables brands to transform static touchpoints—like packaging, digital ads, and TV broadcasts—into interactive MR experiences.
Nishit Garg, Partner at RTP Global, said, "What excites us is not just the technology, but the clarity of vision and speed of execution. Shourya, Malhar, and team are building a category-defining company—and we're excited to be part of their journey in this next phase of growth."
Flam is also expanding its partner ecosystem by empowering creative studios and platforms to build and launch MR content with speed and scale—marking its bold step toward reshaping how brands interact with consumers in the GenAI era.

Here's what a Nintendo superfan says about the new Switch 2
Nintendo's new Switch 2 is already off to a strong start – selling over 3.5 million consoles in just its first four days. I've been testing it out to see what's new and how it compares to the original. The Switch 2 builds on what made the original so popular – portability, flexibility, and a huge library of great games. But it adds a bunch of smart upgrades. First off, the screen is bigger. So is the unit itself – but it's still manageable to hold. The controllers now attach magnetically instead of sliding in, and that in itself is a big improvement. 'On this one it's just like a nice little snap and you're done,' said Nintendo fan Henry Mayhew, who helped me put the Switch 2 through its paces. He bought his console on day one. The dock is redesigned and adds to the system's versatility. You can play on your TV in up to 4K, take it on the go for HD graphics, or prop it up tabletop style. The controllers even work like a mouse now. Buttons feel better, the software runs faster, and graphics, haptics, and sound are all improved. 'The graphics are definitely improved and then it's more engaging to play' said Mayhew. Another big upgrade is game sharing. Downloadable titles now act as virtual game cards, which means you can share them with friends or use them across profiles. 'It's really nice not having the other person to have to have the game for you to be able to play it with them,' Mayhew said. One standout new feature is GameChat. It lets you voice chat while playing, and even plug in a USB-C camera. There's a new 'C' button to activate it. It's free through March 2026, and kids under 16 will need parental controls enabled to use it. 'I mean it's pretty fun…' said Mayhew. The only real downside? Battery life. 'Controllers… those will last you a decade,' said Mayhew. 'But then the battery life on the Switch 2… that only lasts 2–6 hours, and for me personally, it only lasts 3 hours before I have to dock it or plug it in again.' The Switch 2 starts at $450 – or $500 with the new Mario Kart bundled. The next big release? Donkey Kong Bananza, coming mid-July for $70. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

The Backbone of America's Next Industrial Boom Is Being Built Right Now, Says Market Insider
Wall Street insider says a breakthrough AI system may become the foundation of U.S. technological dominance—powered by new federal priorities and private innovation WASHINGTON, June 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a detailed report by a former $4 billion hedge fund manager, the next great American infrastructure buildout isn't happening in factories or freeways—but in data centers, server rooms, and AI training facilities. Enrique Abeyta, a veteran of Wall Street's tech boom cycles, points to a powerful AI system known as Dojo—designed to process real-world video at massive scale—as the kind of infrastructure investment that could define the next decade. 'This is how you train the most advanced AI in the world,' Abeyta said. 'Dojo can analyze over 160 billion frames of video per day… and it's just getting started'. A System Built for Scale Dojo is already being used to power neural networks for autonomous vehicles, but analysts say its reach could extend much further. 'Dojo applications longer-term can extend beyond the auto industry,' according to Morgan Stanley . From robotics and healthcare to military systems and industrial automation, Abeyta believes this class of computing will be as foundational to the AI age as railroads were to the industrial era. Backed by Federal Dollars Dojo's development partner is 'expecting to receive billions of dollars from the Trump administration,' following the signing of a new executive order: 'Removing Barriers to American AI Innovation'. 'President Trump wants to make America the AI superpower of the world,' Abeyta said. 'And this technology is part of that ambition'. Countdown to Deployment The system's first major real-world deployment is expected August 1st, when a full self-driving platform trained on Dojo is scheduled for release. 'That's when this AI infrastructure stops being theoretical,' Abeyta said. 'It becomes real—and it starts scaling'. About Enrique Abeyta Enrique Abeyta is a former Wall Street hedge fund manager who oversaw up to $4 billion in assets. He now publishes Breaking Profits, a research service focused on disruptive technologies and macroeconomic shifts, delivering institutional-level insight to everyday readers.

With the adoption of CyberArk Privileged Access Manager, a component of the CyberArk Identity Security Platform, Panasonic has now established a modern, automated, and centralized environment for managing privileged access. This system provides visibility into server access and details who accessed which server, when, and what actions were performed. Thereby creating an audit trail for improved post-incident investigations. Additionally, credentials and passwords are now automatically granted, hidden from users, and rotated within the CyberArk platform. CyberArk Software Ltd.
