Colossal Biosciences valued at $10.2B after raising $200M to bring back woolly mammoth

Colossal Biosciences, a de-extinction startup led by CEO Ben Lamm, has reached a $10.2 billion valuation after raising approximately $200 million in 2025, led by TWG Global. The company has raised $435 million total since its 2021 founding by Lamm and Harvard geneticist George Church. The pre-revenue firm is developing genetic engineering tools to recreate extinct species, beginning with the woolly mammoth. Rather than precise recreation, researchers are editing Asian elephant DNA with mammoth genes for cold adaptation traits. The company has launched spinouts including Form Bio and Breaking to commercialise adjacent technologies. The project faces significant scepticism from scientists regarding ecological viability and environmental risks of releasing genetically modified organisms. Colossal claims discussions with governments over biodiversity contracts, though outcomes remain uncertain.

LALIGA becomes first European soccer league to partner with Polymarket in the United States and Canada.

LALIGA becomes first European soccer league to partner with Polymarket in the United States and Canada. 22 hours ago LALIGA North America announced a multi-year partnership with Polymarket, the world's largest prediction market, becoming the first European soccer league to do so. As the Official and Exclusive Prediction Market Partner of LALIGA in the United States and Canada, Polymarket will offer LALIGA fans the ability to engage with Spain's premier soccer league and its stars at an unprecedented level. "Soccer's growth, especially in North America, is spearheaded by young, diverse and multicultural audiences who consume the game across multiple screens, so it's our goal to continue to engage these demographics in new and unique ways," said Boris Gartner, Relevent CEO & Partner. "It's imperative we go beyond traditional engagement efforts in order to bring these audiences closer to the beautiful game than ever before, and we couldn't think of a better partner than Polymarket to achieve that." For LALIGA North America, the partnership with Polymarket is a testament to the long-term investment and growth in the region as a result of the 20-year joint venture between LALIGA and Relevent launched in 2018. Polymarket joins a robust roster of regional partners including Walmart, Lowe's, McDonald's, Verizon, Remitly, and Panini, among others. The multi-year partnership with Polymarket includes premium broadcast visibility, fan-focused digital and social programming, and exclusive fan experiences such as VIP match hospitality and virtual meet-and-greets with LALIGA legends. Polymarket will also receive exclusive rights to use LALIGA and club intellectual property in connection with LALIGA matches. Through this partnership, LALIGA and Polymarket will collaborate to establish a responsible and transparent framework that promotes innovative fan participation while upholding the highest standards of sporting integrity, leveraging Polymarket's recently announced next-generation sports integrity platform launched in partnership with Palantir Technologies and TWG AI. "Our goal is to give fans a more expressive way to follow the game, where opinions on players, matches, and season outcomes can be reflected in real time," said Shayne Coplan, Founder and CEO of Polymarket. "Partnering with LALIGA brings that level of interaction to one of the most passionate global fanbases and introduces a new, more dynamic way for North American audiences to engage with the league." Polymarket has rapidly established itself as the prediction market partner of choice for major sports leagues, having announced partnerships with MLB, NHL, UFC, and MLS, which includes serving as the exclusive and official prediction market for MLS Cup, MLS All-Star, and Leagues Cup.

Polymarket partners Palantir and TWG AI to develop sports integrity platform

Polymarket partners Palantir and TWG AI to develop sports integrity platform. 13th March 2026 8:33 am Prediction markets provider Polymarket is developing a new sports integrity platform in partnership with Palantir Technologies and TWG AI. Polymarket said the new platform will promote the trust, transparency, and reliability that participants, institutions, and the public deserve from prediction markets. The sports integrity platform will be based on the Vergence AI engine created last year through a joint venture between Palantir and TWG AI and aims to establish a new standard for sports integrity controls aimed at preventing, identifying, and reporting anomalous or suspicious activity. "Our partnership with Palantir and TWG AI allows us to apply world-class analytics and monitoring to sports markets while building tools that can help leagues and teams maintain confidence in the games themselves," said Polymarket founder and chief executive Shayne Coplan. "Our goal has always been to give fans new ways to engage with the sports they love while ensuring those markets can grow responsibly on a global scale." Dr. Alex Karp, co-founder and CEO of Palantir Technologies, commented: "Our partnership sets a new standard for prediction markets, and we are excited to be at the center of that transformation. Together, we are strengthening the security and integrity of the platform - ensuring that as the sports prediction market continues to expand, Polymarket and TWG AI are positioned to lead with the confidence and competitiveness needed to scale." The features of the new platform include pre-trade and post-trade integrity monitoring, near real-time anomaly detection, screening against restricted participant datasets, and automated generation of trade alerts. "Market integrity isn't a feature you bolt on after the fact - it has to be engineered into the foundation of how an exchange operates," said Drew Cukor, global head of AI at TWG AI. "Our approach is building the surveillance models, identity screening, and detection frameworks from the ground up, designed specifically for the unique risk profile of sports prediction markets."
