VEIR, a Massachusetts-based designer and manufacturer of superconducting power delivery systems for artificial intelligence data centers, has closed an oversubscribed US$110 million Series C funding round. The investment was co-led by Matter Venture Partners and Tyche Partners, with participation from a group of new and existing investors. The round brings VEIR's total capital raised to US$225 million and will support its transition from technology validation to commercial deployment and scaled manufacturing.
Funding Details and Investor Support
The Series C was co-led by Matter Venture Partners and Tyche Partners, with participation from new investors including LG Technology Ventures, Gates Frontier, Sabanci Climate Ventures, and Hui Capital. Existing investors such as Engine Ventures, Galvanize Climate Solutions, Piva Capital, Congruent Ventures, and VXI Capital also joined the oversubscribed round. The financing brings VEIR's total capital raised to US$225 million and underscores investor confidence in its commercial direction.
How VEIR Plans to Use the Capital
The new funding will help VEIR expand its manufacturing operations and strengthen the supply chain needed for larger installations. The company plans to advance its product portfolio while building the technical and commercial capabilities required for repeatable deployment. These steps support a broader shift from technology validation to commercial delivery for data center operators.
The Power Delivery Challenge in AI Data Centers
The rapid buildout of AI infrastructure is creating unprecedented requirements for power density and speed to power. As data center campuses become larger and more power intensive, reliance on copper-based infrastructure is slowing large-scale deployments and requiring increasing amounts of labor, material, and space. VEIR is developing a new power delivery architecture designed specifically for this environment.
Superconducting Technology for Denser Power Delivery
VEIR's integrated systems combine superconducting cables with cryogenic cooling, controls, termination units, and monitoring to move significantly more power through a smaller physical footprint. This approach gives data center operators greater flexibility compared with conventional copper-based infrastructure. It also reduces labor costs, material requirements, and installation complexity, which can slow large-scale deployments.
Commercial Progress and Next Steps
The company has already demonstrated a 3-megawatt superconducting power delivery system and is now working with customers and industry partners on AI-factory reference designs and commercial deployments. VEIR is preparing for initial commercial installations while building the manufacturing, supply chain, and deployment infrastructure required for broader adoption. It is also expanding partnerships across the data center ecosystem to create a scalable pathway from pilot deployments to repeatable commercial installations.
Executive and Investor Commentary
VEIR Chief Executive Officer Tim Heidel said AI infrastructure requires rethinking how power is delivered rather than simply optimizing existing systems. Matter Venture Partners founding managing partner Wen Hsieh noted that power delivery to AI server racks is emerging as a critical constraint on efficient and dense AI compute. Tyche Partners managing partner Weijie Yun added that the physics of copper has become a fundamental limitation and that VEIR has reached an inflection point.
Founded in 2019 and headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, VEIR is focused on AI data centers behind the meter with solutions engineered for repeatable deployment at scale. The US$110 million Series C positions the company to move from demonstrating superconducting power delivery to manufacturing and deploying systems commercially. As AI data center campuses become more power intensive, VEIR aims to provide a faster and more efficient alternative to conventional copper-based infrastructure.
