Founded in 2024 by former Google DeepMind researchers and headquartered in Brooklyn, the company is now valued at approximately $25 billion. It has quickly earned the label of "Western Deep Exploration," especially after a Chinese deep exploration company shook the market with its R1 model in early 2025. Reflection's collaboration with NVIDIA's Nemotron alliance also demonstrates its close relationship with the chip giant's ever-expanding AI landscape. Notably, the speed of funding influx is remarkable. Just last year, Reflection raised $2 billion from NVIDIA, Sequoia Capital, Lightspeed Venture Partners, and Eric Schmidt, among others. Now, JP Morgan is expected to participate in the new round of financing. Meanwhile, the company is beginning to move from theory to practical applications, including developing a Korean language model for New World Group ### Related Stocks - [T-REX 2X Long NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDX.US.md) - [YieldMax NVDA Option Income Strategy ETF (NVDY.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDY.US.md) - [T-REX 2X Inverse NVIDIA Daily Target ETF (NVDQ.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDQ.US.md) - [iShares Semiconductor ETF (SOXX.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXX.US.md) - [iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sect ETF (IGV.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IGV.US.md) - [iShares Global Tech ETF (IXN.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/IXN.US.md) - [Direxion Daily NVDA Bull 2X Shares (NVDU.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDU.US.md) - [Invesco Semiconductors ETF (PSI.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PSI.US.md) - [The Technology Select Sector SPDR® ETF (XLK.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XLK.US.md) - [State Street® SPDR® S&P® Smcndctr ETF (XSD.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XSD.US.md) - [Direxion Daily Semicondct Bull 3X ETF (SOXL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOXL.US.md) - [GraniteShares 2x Long NVDA Daily ETF (NVDL.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDL.US.md) - [State StreetSPDRS&PSftwr&SvcsETF (XSW.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/XSW.US.md) - [NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/NVDA.US.md) - [VanEck Semiconductor ETF (SMH.US)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SMH.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [France's Mistral raises $830 million in debt for AI data centre build-up](https://longbridge.com/en/news/280962362.md) - [Oracle Unveils AI Data Platform for US Federal Government | ORCL Stock News](https://longbridge.com/en/news/281182262.md) - [Bye Bye, NVDA!
