Mozilla operates as a not-for-profit organization focused on promoting an open and accessible internet. Its main product is the Firefox browser, which emphasizes user privacy and security. Mozilla generates revenue through partnerships and search engine royalties, allowing it to reinvest in projects that enhance internet health rather than distributing profits to shareholders. This commitment to user empowerment and ethical practices sets Mozilla apart from traditional for-profit tech companies. Additionally, Mozilla engages in advocacy and educational initiatives through the Mozilla Foundation, supporting open-source projects and internet literacy programs. The overall goal of Mozilla is to create a better internet for everyone.

Açık kaynaklı yazılımıyla verilerin tek bir yerde toplanmasına gerek kalmadan bir yapay zeka modelinin eğitilmesini sağlayan Flower Labs, Felicis liderliğinde gerçekleşen Seri A turda 20 milyon dolar yatırım aldı.Yatırım turuna First Spark Ventures, Factorial Capital, Beta Works, Y Combinator, Pioneer Fund, Mozilla Ventures ile Hugging Face CEO'su Clem Delangue ve GitHub kurucu ortağı Scott Chacon katıldı. Girişimin değerlemesi yeni yatırımla birlikte 100 milyon dolara ulaştı.University of Cambridge'de tanışan kurucu ortaklar Daniel Beutel, Taner Topal ve Nicholas Lane tarafından hayata geçirilen Flower Labs'in teknolojisi, "federated learning" adı verilen bir eğitim modelini kullanıyor. Federated learning, geleneksel merkezi model eğitiminden farklı olarak, verilerin kullanıcı cihazlarda veya küçük veri merkezlerinde kalmasına izin veren bir makine öğrenimi teknolojisi olarak tanımlanabilir. Bu yaklaşım, kullanıcıların kişisel verilerini paylaşmadan, öğrenme modelinin güncellenmesine olanak tanıyor.Federated learning, bir yapay zeka modelinin tüm eğitim verilerinin merkezi bir sunucuya aktarılmadan eğitilmesine imkan sağlıyor ve bu da verilerin gizliliğini ve güvenliğini korumaya yardımcı olabiliyor.Flower Labs'in ürününün 1100'den fazla projede kullanıldığı belirtiliyor. Girişimin, ürün kullanılarak federated learning projelerinin nasıl oluşturulacağını tartışmak isteyenler için kurduğu bir Slack kanalında ise 3 bin 100 geliştirici mevcut. Flower'ı kullanan şirketler arasında danışmanlık devi Accenture, telekom şirketi Orange ve Siemens'in sağlık bölümü bulunuyor.Daniel Beutel, Flower Labs'in aldığı yeni yatırımı federated learning konusundaki farkındalığı artırmak, Flower'ı kullanan geliştiricilerin sayısını artırmak ve personel eklemek için kullanmayı planladıklarını söyledi
