Our take

The rise of generative AI has empowered many industries to fine-tune their operations. PhysicsX utilizes the burgeoning technology to improve the efficiency and advancement of simulations in physics, with applications across aerospace, automotive, renewable energy, medical devices, additive manufacturing, electric vehicles, motorsport, and renewables.

Co-founded by a chief scientist for championship-winning Formula One teams, PhysicsX was born out of a hunger for more advanced research and development phases using numerical physics. R&D and physics simulation go hand-in-hand for many industries, and PhysicsX can help manufacturers iron out problems before they even build a prototype.

Founded in 2020, and raising an impressive $32 million in 2023, the company is pursuing accelerated growth through its customer delivery, product, and research wings. It is about to take the next leap in building out its technology platform and product offering. As it further develops its product, the company has a real chance to capture the market moving forward.
