Proud moment for the Eccentric team with the launch of the One3D engine. From day one, the focus has been on deep-tech fundamentals, a vertical-first approach, and building a product capable of scaling globally through real adoption. One3D brings that vision to life- a single 3D engine delivering native performance across devices, journeys, and OEMs. Congratulations to Varun Shah Gaurav Rane and the team.

What’s missing from the AI gold rush? Climate. AI is rewriting software at speed, but the world’s hardest problems are still physical. Climate innovation needs patient capital, real-world deployment and a new lens on how AI accelerates discovery, not just scale. If AI can compress experimentation and derisk physical systems, climate tech can shift from niche to conviction-led investing. A thoughtful piece by Arkam's Bhumika Krishnani (高思颖) on where AI and climate truly intersect, and why this moment matters. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gpFizcid

If you want to understand the future of global manufacturing, don’t start with semiconductors. Start with a $5 plastic duck. Toys are one of the hardest categories to manufacture well. They demand precision, safety, speed and scale, all at once. And that is exactly why they have quietly shaped some of the world’s most sophisticated manufacturing ecosystems. India now has a real window to build globally competitive manufacturing platforms. Our work with Mirana Toys shows what this can look like when IP creation, advanced manufacturing and export ambition come together. Kunwarjeet Chawla unpacks this journey and the broader opportunity for India in his latest piece. 👉 Read the full article here: https://lnkd.in/gsvdwWg4

From 1,000 to 26: Meet the First Cohort of Arkam’s Limitless Program We are thrilled to introduce the inaugural class of the Limitless Program. This isn't just a welcome; it’s a celebration of the journey it took to get here. When we set out to find India’s brightest Gen Z talent, we knew that academic brilliance was a given- our applicants came from the best Indian universities. Because the academic baseline was already so high, our selection process wasn't looking for just intelligence; we were hunting for grit, dedication, and consistency. The Selection Funnel: It started with 1,000+ applications, which were narrowed down through a 5-day task-based challenge designed to test some analytical thinking, but primarily commitment. It concluded with our investment team hand-picking the final 26 students who stood out from a highly engaged pool of ~300 finalists. The Work So Far: Since their selection, these finalists have already completed their 3 strategic sprints, working closely under the mentorship of our investment team. We will be diving into the specifics of each sprint soon, but the rigour and insight they’ve shown throughout has been exceptional. To our final 26: You have already proven you are cut from a different cloth. Welcome to the ecosystem. Here's to building something limitless!
