## Resource

Nyobolt is building fast energy storage systems for AI infrastructure, where data centres and robotics require far higher power density and faster charging than conventional technologies can provide. Sai Shivareddy is Founder and CEO at Nyobolt. The company spent years developing its technology before AI infrastructure created demand for it, and is now deploying its systems in robotics, with data centres as its next target market. The company recently raised a $60m Series C at a $1 billion valuation, making it one of the UK's newest unicorns. The Scaling Europe show is presented by Deel.
