Top Venture Firms Race to Secure Chips for Startups
Original: Andreessen Horowitz, General Catalyst Race to Secure the Chips Their Startups Need
Venture capital giants Andreessen Horowitz and General Catalyst are moving to secure semiconductor supplies for their portfolio companies, according to The Information. The scramble reflects how scarce computing chips, especially for AI, have become a bottleneck for startups, pushing investors to intervene directly in supply chains rather than rely on cloud providers or standard procurement routes.
Why now: Chip shortages and surging AI demand are forcing investors to secure hardware directly for their startups.
