About The Speaker

Alexander Portz
"Redline has backed multiple companies across the wider AI landscape since we started investing in 2014: investing across the silicon, infrastructure and application software layers. We were early investors in novel AI silicon and software systems company SambaNova Systems, first investing in the Series A round in 2018, and supporting the company in multiple funding rounds since, which culminated in a valuation of over $5BN in the most recent round. On the AI infrastructure side, we recently invested in Katana Graph, the world’s fastest graph analytics processing engine which originated from research out of UT Austin. Katana’s platform supports graph AI analytics for a range of popular use cases. On the application software side, we have invested in companies like Anodot (anomaly detection on business data) and Signal AI (AI for media monitoring and insights)."
