| All Hands AI All Hands AI builds OpenHands, an open platform for AI agents that do software development work: working from conversations tied to repositories, opening pull requests and running automations. | |
| AMD AMD is a chip designer whose data center AI business centres on Instinct GPUs and APUs, expanded through the Xilinx and ZT Systems acquisitions and capped by a 6-gigawatt OpenAI supply deal. | |
| Anysphere Anysphere is the company behind Cursor, an AI-assisted coding tool. Between 2024 and 2025 it raised four rounds, reaching a $29.3 billion valuation, over $1 billion in annualized revenue, and use by more than half of the Fortune 500. | |
| Baidu Research / Institute of Deep Learning Baidu Research is the research arm of Baidu, built around the Institute of Deep Learning founded in 2013, with laboratories in Beijing and Silicon Valley; in 2014 Andrew Ng became chief scientist in charge of the whole organisation. | |
| Bell Labs Bell Labs was the research arm of the Bell System, where the transistor, Unix and the C language were created. Yann LeCun's convolutional networks for handwritten digits were developed there, which made it an early home of neural-network research. | 1925 |
| Biren Technology Chinese chip designer founded in 2019 that builds general-purpose GPU (GPGPU) chips and intelligent computing solutions on its self-developed BILI series hardware and BIRENSUPA software, for AI training and inference from cloud to edge. | 2019 |
| Black Forest Labs Black Forest Labs is a German AI lab based in Freiburg im Breisgau, founded in 2024 by Robin Rombach, Andreas Blattmann and Patrick Esser. It develops the FLUX image models and raised a $300 million Series B in December 2025. | 2024 |
| Bolt Bolt describes itself as Europe's first multi-modal mobility app, offering ride-hailing, car sharing, scooters and food and grocery delivery, with more than 200 million passengers and 4.5 million earning partners. | |
