We all love a great smart assistant or a kick-ass consumer app like ChatGPT. But only AI innovation in the ‘real world’ will truly transform our lives today: personalised healthcare, sustainable manufacturing & production, smart infrastructure. Out of the top 30 AI companies globally, none are focused on 'real world’ applications today. Moreover, 83% of the world’s top AI companies are dominated by the US and China. So, why is this innovation not accelerating and not more widespread? The venture funding & incubation eco-system is broken outside of the US and China. As a result, many initiatives are not being managed to maturity. At whitecloudAI, we pioneer a different approach to AI venture building: - Anchored in small countries. Allows for ultra-fast MVP building and efficient/effective initial commercial development. Once local incubation is successful, the ‘small country’ export mindset is leveraged for accelerated global scaling - Ideation in close partnership with a flourishing academic research eco-system. Where the most cutting-edge thinking takes place - Laser focus on clear ‘real world’ niches, where transformation can happen TODAY. We have found the perfect opportunity to get started - in New Zealand’s unique incubator economy.
