UP.Labs rebranded to Vantora. It now builds startups only for corporate partners. Partners can keep the startups instead of letting them go public. This lets Vantora pursue sensitive physical AI use cases. It already works with Porsche, Alaska Airlines, J.B. Hunt, Wabash and TDG. The shift focuses Vantora on industrial and oil and gas sectors. It raised $100M from Silversmith Capital Partners. This is Vantora’s first outside investment.

UP.Labs built startups for both corporate partners and the broader market.

What it unlocks
