Rubicon Path

Pathway is shaking the foundations of artificial intelligence by introducing the world's first post-transformer frontier model that solves continual learning. The company's breakthrough architecture, called BDH, outperforms traditional Transformer models and provides enterprises with full visibility into how the model works. By combining this foundational model with the fastest data processing engine on the market, Pathway enables organizations to move beyond incremental optimization toward truly contextualized, experience-driven intelligence. The company was founded in 2020 by Zuzanna Stamirowska, a complexity scientist who built a team of AI pioneers including CTO Jan Chorowski (who worked with Nobel laureate Geoff Hinton at Google Brain and was the first to apply Attention to speech) and CSO Adrian Kosowski (a leading computer scientist and quantum physicist who obtained his PhD at age 20). Pathway is headquartered in Palo Alto, California with additional offices in Paris, France and Wroclaw, Poland. The company is backed by leading investors including TQ Ventures and Lukasz Kaiser, co-author of the Transformer architecture, and is trusted by enterprise clients such as NATO, La Poste, and Formula 1 racing teams.

We're the team behind the Campus Experience Platform (CXP), a different approach to higher education technology. Instead of building systems just for administrators, we flipped the script and put students, staff, prospects, parents, and alumni at the center of everything we do. Our platform unifies fragmented campus technology into a single, cohesive digital experience that actually makes sense for the people using it every day. Higher ed institutions are facing real challenges with digital sprawl - too many disconnected systems creating friction for everyone. We built Pathify to solve this by creating a unified front end that connects with all your existing investments like SIS, LMS, CRM, and ERP. Technology shouldn't be a burden or an afterthought. When done right, it becomes a strategic asset that helps students take control of their journey and helps institutions thrive. We're here to end digital chaos and build something that genuinely works for the entire campus community.

We started Palmstreet in 2020 with a simple idea: creating an open and inclusive community for everyone who loves plants. What began as a plant identification app quickly evolved into something much bigger when we discovered the power of live commerce. Today, we're a team of about 50 people building what we like to call the 'World's Online Main Street' - a place where real people connect over shared passions, whether that's rare plants, handmade crafts, crystals, reptiles, or unique collectibles. Our platform has grown to over 2 million passionate collectors and sellers, and we've been fortunate to partner with investors who believe in our vision (a16z, Craft Ventures, and Headline). We're not trying to be another faceless marketplace. We're building something different - a place where you can actually talk to the seller, ask questions in real-time, and discover items that come with stories attached. Our team works from everywhere, and we're proud of the inclusive community we're fostering where businesses of all sizes can thrive.
