IQM's Nasdaq Listing & Climate Tech with Daria Saharova

World Fund's Daria Saharova recaps ringing the Nasdaq bell for portfolio company IQM, Europe's leading quantum computing company, and argues Europe must shift 'from resilience back to power play' by building global champions rather than chasing sovereignty for its own sake.

Daria Saharova: World Fund's Green Compute Bets & Fund Thesis

Daria Saharova closes her segment by outlining World Fund's 'green compute' thesis — hardware (quantum, photonics), software compression, and cooling startups to counter AI's power demand. She highlights recent deals: a Munich quantum-sensing company for chip failure analysis that raised a $91M Series A, Hyperscale Power (solid-state transformers), and an AI material-discovery startup. She notes the firm is raising its next fund to double down on European deep tech in energy and food & ag before signing off.
