25-year-old British entrepreneur becomes Europe's youngest self-made billionaire with $3B AI chip startup

James Dacombe, a 25-year-old British entrepreneur, has become Europe's youngest self-made billionaire after his AI chip company Olix raised funding at a valuation exceeding $3 billion. This nearly tripled the company's $1 billion valuation from February, when it secured $220 million. Dacombe, who began programming at 13 without formal training, left school as a teenager with support from the Thiel Fellowship. He founded CoMind in 2017-2018, developing non-invasive brain monitoring technology. The startup raised $60 million in 2025, bringing total funding to $102.5 million. Launched in 2024, Olix develops specialised chips for AI inference. Investors include Arm, Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings, and the British Sovereign AI Fund. Commercial chip shipments are expected by late 2027.

London-based AI chip developer Olix has raised $312 million in a funding round led by New York investment firm Fundomo, with participation from Arm, Hudson River Trading, and Netflix co-founder Reed Hastings.

The company employs over 140 staff across London, Bristol, Toronto, and Austin. Olix differentiates itself with a photonic interconnect that uses lasers to move data between chip clusters with greater energy efficiency. The company also avoids scarce semiconductor components and uses proprietary AI tools to accelerate development, including work on its compiler. Matt Briers, former CFO at fintech Wise, joins as chief financial officer.

AI networking startup Eridu emerges from stealth with $200M Series A

AI networking startup Eridu has emerged from stealth with a $200 million Series A round led by Socratic Partners, John Doerr, Matter Venture Partners and others, bringing total funding to $230 million. The oversubscribed round values the company comparably to other large Series A deals, though CEO Drew Perkins declined to confirm unicorn status. Founded in 2024 by networking veterans Drew Perkins and Omar Hassen, Eridu is developing new silicon and systems designed specifically for AI data centres. The company aims to replace traditional tiered optical connections with on-chip communications, reducing latency and power consumption whilst improving reliability. Perkins previously co-founded Lightera Networks, Infinera and Gainspeed, companies that collectively generated over $2.7 billion in exits. Other investors include Hudson River Trading, Capricorn Investment Group, TSMC's VentureTech Alliance and MediaTek.
