The company, backed by Bill Gates and Google, aims to commercialize nuclear fusion with its Sparc prototype expected to produce energy by 2027. This investment reflects growing interest in nuclear energy, supported by the White House, as tech companies seek to meet rising power demands driven by AI ventures. Investors are closely watching this sector for potential public offerings and growth opportunities. Support from the White House administration for nuclear energy has led to more investments in the sector and investors are looking for the stocks to watch in the sector. Private nuclear companies are also landing more investments, with one startup picking up support from the world's most valuable company. ## **Nvidia Invests In Nuclear Fusion** Nuclear fusion startup **Commonwealth Fusion Systems** raised $1.8 billion in 2021 and has counted **Alphabet Inc.’s** (NASDAQ:GOOG)(NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google and **Bill Gates** as investors via various investment arms. The company can now add **NVIDIA Corp** (NASDAQ:NVDA) to the list of investors via a new $863 million funding round. With the new raise, the company has raised almost $3 billion, according to a report from TechCrunch. This marks the most funding of any nuclear fusion private company. "This round of capital isn't just about fusion just generally as a concept, but it's about how do we go to make fusion into a commercial industrial endeavor," Commonwealth Energy co-founder and CEO **Bob Mumgaard** said. Both Gates and Google increased their investments in the company during the round, along with Gates-linked entities **Breakthrough Energy Ventures** and **Gates Frontier.** Nvidia, via its NVentures arm, was one of the new investors in the company in the latest funding round. Other notable new investors in the company include **Galaxy Interactive, Stanley Druckenmiller** and **Mitsubishi Corporation.** The company is building **Sparc,** a nuclear fusion prototype, which it hopes will have notable energy production in 2027. The potential success of Sparc will lead to the company creating Arc, a Virginia power plant, with plans to start construction in 2027 or 2028. ## **Tech Companies Backing Nuclear** As bets on public and private nuclear companies heat up, some of the same companies and individuals are found backing the sector. In June, Gates-backed **TerraPower** landed an investment from Nvidia via NVentures. TerraPower hopes to bring its Natrium reactor online by 2030 in the state of Wyoming. The reactor will supply nuclear power to various customers. Gates serves as the chairman of the board for TerraPower. Big technology companies such as Google and Nvidia are investing in the nuclear power space as their growth into artificial intelligence ventures spurs a need for more power consumption. A company now backed by Bill Gates, Google and Nvidia will likely be closely watched by investors in hopes the company will someday go public and be successful in the sector. ### Related Stocks - [NVDL.US - GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [07788.HK - XL2CSOPNVDA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07788.HK.md) - [07388.HK - XI2CSOPNVDA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/07388.HK.md) - [NVDY.US - YieldMax NVDA Option Income Strategy ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [NVDD.US - Direxion Daily NVDA Bear 1X ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDD.US.md) - [NVDX.US - T-Rex 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [NVDQ.US - T-Rex 2X Inverse NVIDIA Daily Target ETF](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDQ.US.md) - [GOOG.US - Alphabet - C](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GOOG.US.md) - [NVDA.US - NVIDIA](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 索羅斯逆市加碼微軟及 Nvidia 等科企 新買入黃金股 清倉 4 隻股份 | 索羅斯基金管理公司在 2022 年第四季度加大對微軟、英偉達和蘋果等大型科技股的投資，同時增持黃金股以對衝風險。基金還增持了 Atlassian、Salesforce 和 Uber 等軟體公司股票，但大幅減持了 Snowflake 和 Ci | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275990619.md) | | 美國 1 月 CPI 來襲！標普 500、輝達、德國 DAX 指數、澳元/美元技術分析 | 美國勞工統計局將於 2 月 13 日發布 1 月消費者價格指數（CPI），預計服務價格漲幅放緩將導致通脹降温，但核心通脹率可能上升。1 月非農就業數據強勁，促使市場對美聯儲降息次數的預期減少。標普 500 指數在 2 月 12 日下跌 1. | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275974381.md) | | Biltmore Family Office LLC 減持了 NVIDIA Corporation $NVDA 的股份 | Biltmore Family Office LLC 在第三季度減少了對英偉達公司（NASDAQ: NVDA）9.1% 的持股，目前持有 29,694 股，價值 5,541,000 美元。其他投資者，包括 October Effect Lt | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275999991.md) | | Westfuller Advisors LLC 持有 NVIDIA 公司價值 596 萬美元的股份 | Westfuller Advisors LLC 在第三季度將其在 NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) 的持股增加了 33.8%，目前持有 31,955 股，價值約 596 萬美元。這使得 NVIDIA 佔其投 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275977152.md) | | 預測：這隻 AI 股票將在 2 月 25 日之後大幅上漲。以下是原因 | Nvidia (NVDA) 的股票在過去三個月中因地緣政治緊張局勢和對人工智能支出擔憂而下跌了 2%。然而，該公司預計將在 2 月 25 日公佈強勁的 2024 財年第四季度業績，預計收入將增長 67% 達到 655 億美元，盈利將增長 7 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275701772.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
